Streaming on BritBox from 14th April Written and directed by Hugh Laurie comes a three part adaptation of Agatha Christies classic, Why Didnt They Ask Evans Starring Will Poulter and Lucy Boynton alongside an allstar British cast of Conleth Hill, Emma Thompson, Paul Whitehouse, Jim Broadbent and more. Based on her 1934 novel, Why Didnt They Ask Evans opens with a fine Agatha Christie enigma: a man lies dying at the foot of a cliff, apparently the victim of an accidental fall. With his final breath, he utters the mysterious question of the title and promptly expires. Some people perhaps most people might shrug at the impenetrable oddness of the words and move on with their lives. But Bobby Jones and his childhood friend, Lady Frances Frankie Derwent, are not most people. They resolve to honour the dead man by deciphering, and then answering, his final question. In so doing, they hit upon a dark conspiracy of deceit, betrayal and perhaps unsurprisingly murder.
