The series also aired on in Canada and on and in the United States. The programme ran for 13 series and 70 episodes in total; each episode was adapted from a novel or short story by Christie that featured Poirot, and consequently in each episode Poirot is both the main detective in charge of the investigation of a crime (usually murder) and the protagonist who is at the centre of most of the episode's action. At the programme's conclusion, which finished with, based on the, every major literary work by Christie that featured the title character had been adapted. Main article: Production [ ] in partnership with producer Brian Eastman adapted the pilot. Together, they wrote and produced the first eight series. Exton and Eastman left Poirot after 2001, when they began work on.

Michele Buck and, who both went on to form, were behind the revamping of the series. The episodes aired from 2003 featured a radical shift in tone from the previous series.

The humour of the earlier series was downplayed with each episode being presented as serious drama, and saw the introduction of gritty elements not present in the Christie stories being adapted. Recurrent motifs in the additions included drug use, sex, abortion, homosexuality, and a tendency toward more visceral imagery. Story changes were often made to present female characters in a more sympathetic or heroic light, at odds with Christie's characteristic gender neutrality. The visual style of later episodes was correspondingly different: particularly, an overall darker tone; and austere modernist or locations and decor, widely used earlier in the series, being largely dropped in favour of more lavish settings (epitomised by the re-imagining of Poirot's home as a larger, more lavish apartment). The series logo was redesigned (the full opening title sequence had not been used since series 6 in 1996), and the main theme motif, though used often, was usually featured subtly and in sombre arrangements; this has been described as a consequence of the novels adapted being darker and more psychologically driven.

However, a more upbeat string arrangement of the theme music is used for the end credits of, and. In flashback scenes, later episodes also made extensive use of, distorted colours, and other visual effects.

Most of the locations and buildings where the episodes were shot were given fictional names. Casting [ ] Suchet was recommended for the part by Christie's family, who had seen him appear as Blott in the TV adaptation of Tom Sharpe's. Suchet, a, said that he prepared for the part by reading all the and every short story, and copying out every piece of description about the character.

Suchet told Strand Magazine: 'What I did was, I had my file on one side of me and a pile of stories on the other side and day after day, week after week, I ploughed through most of Agatha Christie's novels about Hercule Poirot and wrote down characteristics until I had a file full of documentation of the character. And then it was my business not only to know what he was like, but to gradually become him. I had to become him before we started shooting.' During the filming of the first series, Suchet almost left the production during an argument with a director, insisting that Poirot's odd mannerisms (in this case, putting a handkerchief down before sitting on a park bench) be featured; he later said 'there's no question [Poirot's] '. According to many critics and enthusiasts, Suchet's characterisation is considered to be the most accurate interpretation of all the actors who have played Poirot, and the closest to the character in the books. In 2013, Suchet revealed that Christie's daughter had told him she was sure Christie would have approved of his performance. Download Soal Sbmptn Soshum 2013 Dan Pembahasannya more. In 2007, Suchet spoke of his desire to film the remaining stories in the canon and hoped to achieve this before his 65th birthday in May 2011.

The remaining books were finally adapted in 2013 into 5 episodes, from which Curtain aired last on 13 November 2013. A 2013 television special, 'Being Poirot', centred on Suchet's characterisation and his emotional final episode. Development [ ] Actors [ ].

It was broadcast in the United Kingdom on the same evening as the final episode Curtain. Suchet visited, Agatha Christie's summer home, recollecting how he met her daughter Rosalind and her husband Anthony Hicks for their approval before he began filming. He now meets Christie's grandson Matthew Pritchard who recounts how his grandmother found the character amongst Belgian refugees in Torquay.

A visit to the permanent Poirot exhibition at Torquay Museum to which he presented the cane he used in the television series. Suchet acknowledged the first stage and film adaptations of the books with actors such as on the London stage in Alibi, an adaptation of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, in 1928. Alibi was filmed in 1931 with Austin Trevor but is now lost. The oldest surviving film portrayal from 1934 was Lord Edgware Dies again with Austin Trevor portraying Poirot.

Suchet notes a conscious decision was made by the film company to portray Poirot without a moustache. Films featuring and were also featured. Suchet reveals that he read the books and wrote down 93 notes about the character that he went on to use in his portrayal. The descriptions in the books helped him discover the voice he would use, and the rapid mincing gait. Suchet also goes to Florin Court, a place that the production company choose to represent his home Whitehaven Mansions. There he meets first producer Brian Eastman, with whom he discusses the set that was built based on the flats, and Eastman's decision to fix the stories in 1936. Suchet also visits composer who had composed four themes for Eastman, the first being Gunning's favourite.

Eastman chose the fourth after having Gunning darken the tone. Suchet travels to, where he is feted by the police chief and mayor.

He then goes to, which claims to be the birthplace of Poirot, and he is shown a birth certificate as proof. It says the date was 1 April, ' (no year mentioned). Finally, Suchet travels on the Orient Express and recounts filming the episode 'Dead Man's Folly' last at Greenway to finish on a high note. Novels or stories not displayed in the series [ ] Suchet was proud to have completed the entire Poirot canon by the time of the broadcast of the final episode, only slightly short of the target he had set himself (in a 2007 interview) of completing the entire canon before his 65th birthday. The short stories and novellas ', ', ',' ',' ',' ',' and ' were not filmed in their original short story format, as Agatha Christie later rewrote these stories as novellas or novels ( The Incredible Theft, Murder in the Mews, The Adventure of the Christmas Pudding, The Mystery of the Spanish Chest, Dead Man's Mirror, Dumb Witness, and Dead Man's Folly respectively) which were made into episodes. Unlike the other Poirot short story collections, which were adapted into 1-hour episodes, the collection entitled (consisting of twelve short stories linked by an initial scene-setting story and a broad running theme) was adapted into a single 2-hour film.

The end result drew heavily on some of the stories; other stories contributed only minor details. The original version of, unpublished until 2009, was not used at all.

Also incorporated into this single film was a character with the surname Lemesurier, as a nod to the short story ', which has otherwise not been included in the Poirot series. One other short story, 'The Regatta Mystery', is not included in the Suchet series, as it is not generally considered part of the Poirot canon. First published in issue 546 of the Strand Magazine in June 1936 under the title Poirot and the Regatta Mystery (and illustrated by Jack M. Faulks), the story was later rewritten by Christie to change the detective from Hercule Poirot to. It was as a Parker Pyne mystery that the story was first published in book format in The Regatta Mystery and Other Stories (published in the United States in 1939). Although the story is now associated with Parker Pyne, it was included in the 2008 omnibus volume Hercule Poirot: the Complete Short Stories, which was the first public association of the story with Hercule Poirot since the original Strand Magazine publication of 1936.

Aside from 'Poirot and the Regatta Mystery', the one authentic Hercule Poirot story not included in any form, whole or partial, in the Agatha Christie's Poirot series is the 1930 play. Although it was adapted into a novel in 1998, with the permission of the Christie Estate, it was not previously available in novel format.

David Suchet did give a live reading of the original play version for the Agatha Christie Theatre Company, and therefore felt that he had done justice to the entire authentic canon. References [ ]. • Kemp, Stuart (8 April 2013).. The Hollywood Reporter.
