Agatha Christie: a Life in Pictures

on BBC Two England

The queen of crime writing cultivated a public persona that allowed her to keep much of her personal life a mystery. But her later writings provide fascinating insights. This absorbing dramatisation of Christie's fife recalls her experiences of nursing during the First World War and her little-known travels in Iran.
Writer/Director Richard Curson-Smith ; Producer Colette Flight
