Excellent value and performances
Would you listen to Poirot's Finest Cases again? Why?
The audio plays are great for long travel or falling asleep. For me its usually the latter so I can listen over and over. The atmosphere is created with realistic sound effects and good character actors really bring the stories alive.
What about John Moffat and Full Cast ’s performance did you like?
It's hard to go past David Suchet as Poirot, but John Moffat is very close.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, its 8 plays - perfect for diving into at different points to enjoy all the strories
Any additional comments?
These plays can be purchased individually on in this bundle for the same price - do yourself a favour and pick this one!

Great storytelling!
Really enjoyed this set of stories, and like the use of performers for the different roles rather than one narrator. Poirot mysteries always have a fun twist.

Comfort and intrigue all in one
Agatha is the best as is her admirable, witty, pompous and interesting Poirot. The man himself. So well done by the BBC and it’s voice actors. Brilliant.

A wonderful escape with a professional cast and classic tales. If Agatha Christie is your cup of tea then find an arm chair and enjoy.
