Netflix Agatha Christie Show Filmed in Bristol, Bath and Somerset

Chris Chibnall adapts Agatha Christie’s 1929 novel into a three-part period murder mystery featuring Lady Eileen 'Bundle' Brent investigating a suspicious death and secret society.

  • Now streaming on Netflix, Agatha Christie’s The Seven Dials Mystery is adapted for TV by Chris Chibnall in a three-episode drama starring Helena Bonham Carter, Martin Freeman and Mia McKenna-Bruce.
  • After being tasked to find a Christie title, Chris Chibnall chose The Seven Dials Mystery for its global relevance and pursued a cinematic vision for Netflix.
