Screenwriter Rachel Bennette’s script is pacy without being confusing and doesn’t noticeably attempt to crowbar in any contemporary concerns (although the makers claim David and Victoria Beckham provided an inspiration for the public’s fascination with a sportsman’s marriage). Towards Zero is a creamily deluxe entry into the crowded murderer mystery field.

We must wait until midway into the second episode of three to find whose death is to be solved. Only then does the story work its evidential way back towards the point zero of motive. Thus this Christie feels like a long skip to the centre of an impeccably clipped maze, followed by a long trudge to the exit.

Naturally, you’re being manipulated the whole time to keep you watching, as tiresome as the characters can become over the series’ several hours. The main attractions other than that it’s a new Christie adaptation — a considerable audience is going to show up just for that — are Huston, who brings a quietly irritable majesty to her part and is just plain good to see again, and Rhys, screwing himself into the dictionary definition of hangdog.
