Get ready to dust off your magnifying glass as Netflix dives headfirst into vintage mystery with a modern twist. In one of its new dramas, Broadchurch creator Chris Chibnall is taking on Agatha Christie’s The Seven Dials Mystery, bringing the Queen of Crime’s cunning plots and upper-crust intrigue to the streaming age.
Expect secrets, suspects, an all-star cast and plenty of stiff-upper-lip suspense as Chibnall reimagines one of Christie’s lesser-known but delightfully twisty tales for a new generation.
