As they walked along the sound of squibs was still heard periodically. An occasional shower of golden rain illuminated the sky. “Good night for a murder,” remarked Japp with professional interest. “Nobody would hear a shot, for instance, on a night like this.” “It has always seemed odd to me that more criminals do not take advantage of the fact,” said Hercule Poirot. “Do you know, Poirot, I almost wish sometimes that you would commit a murder.” “Mon cher!” “Yes, I’d like to see just how you’d set about it.” “My dear Japp, if I committed a murder you would not have the least chance of seeing — how I set about it! You would not even be aware, probably, that a murder had been committed.”
“Murder in the Mews” was first published in the USA in Redbook Magazine, September/October 1936, then as “Mystery of the Dressing Case” in Woman’s Journal, December 1936.
Air date: 15 January 1989.

I bet they gave Hugh Laurie and Hugh Fraser the same description for each of their characters in both shows:

1930s Orange Henley: A Comparison
My knowledge of year-to-year men's fashion isn't extensive but I do notice trends and, pun intended, common threads. In the first three frames above Hugh Fraser, as Captain Hastings in Agatha Christie's Poirot, is wearing a charming knit Henley in a subtle orange color with two pockets. It looks like a single pattern cotton knit, fairly thin. It was filmed in 1988 or 1989 for the episode Murder in the Mews (1/15/89). I'm not sure if it's actually vintage but it very well could be, as it would only have been about 50 or so years old at that point. [Bonus 1978 Richard Carmody in the background, played by Christopher Brown.] In the last four screencaps from All Creatures Great and Small (1978), Tristan Farnon (Peter Davison) is wearing a similar collared orange Henley in the episodes Calf Love and It Takes All Kinds. It appears to be more woolen than cotton and lacks pockets. There is a tiny button at the back of the collar so it can remain turned-down and it has buttons at the v-neck collar like a typical Henley. There is also a nice knit zig-zag design. Again, not sure if this is vintage, but if it originates from the time period (1937 in this first season) it would only be about 40 years old in the late 70s. Both sweaters are lovely!

Agatha Christie's Poirot episode of Murder in Mesopotamia is out of control. Obviously the American accents...leave something to be desired, but at one point, Poirot gets so annoyed with Hastings' "lemme tell you something about women" advice that he says "Hastings, your wife is so sick of you that she told you NOT ONLY TO leave the house, but the COUNTRY." Bitch...

Mrs. Todd’s cheque for a guinea was never cashed. Instead Poirot had it framed and hung on the wall of our sitting room. “It is to me a little reminder, Hastings. Never to despise the trivial — the undignified. A disappearing domestic at one end — a cold-blooded murder at the other. To me, one of the most interesting of my cases.”
“The Adventure of the Clapham Cook” was first published in The Sketch, November 14, 1923.
Air date: January 8, 1989.

EUmm... Hi. This is my first time here and therefore I apologize for my poor English. My name is Sofia, I am 20 years old and... I'm Russian. Yes, I am Russian and I understand English a little. I live in St. Petersburg, studying to be a historian. And recently I became interested in the work of Agatha Christie. But it all started with the seriesI really liked the series, and my favorite character is Captain Arthur Hastings. I like him for his honesty and kindness... And he's just an angel! (My God, look at his eyes! Only angels have such things!) So I decided to do something for myself with him...And I made a divider for the notebook. Unfortunately, my family didn't like it, and no one among my friends knows about the series and about Agatha Christie herself. I've been thinking about writing something here for a long time and decided to start with this. Well, I will be glad if someone reads and appreciates my creation.
