sabaceanbabe!!!! May it be a good one.
Because I am extravagant, I have just bought this. What can I say? I love me some David Suchet. Plus, the Suchet adaptation of Death on the Nile is one of my favourite Poirot adaptations. And while I've never seen the Suchet adaptation of The Hollow, it's one of my favourite Agatha Christie books. I yearn to see the TV version of The Hollow. If it sucks, please tell me quickly, while I can still cancel the order.
It's funny, I got the TV adaptation of Terry Pratchett's Going Postal for Christmas from my brother, and Suchet plays Reacher Gilt, the villain. It took me about five scenes to stop seeing him as Poirot and start seeing him as Gilt. Not Suchet's fault, he wasn't imbuing Gilt with any Poirot-ian mannerisms or anything. I have just totally identified him with this one role.
In other news, Season 2 of Orphan Black starts Saturday!!!
