Adam and Frankie were lucky enough to spend some time with Captain Hastings himself, the delightful Hugh Fraser, who very generously gave us an afternoon in his company, answering the questions you sent in, and reminiscing about what made Poirot such a fabulous show to work on.

What did Hugh really think about the Laguna?

Which was his favourite episode?

Are "The Whitehaven Four" really as close as they appear on the show?

Did Hugh really come up with the theme song to TV's Rainbow?

The answers to these questions and many, many more are revealed!

No mystery to solve this time, or is there...

Join Frankie and Adam for their end-of-year round up - a small retrospective on the podcast itself, their favourite moments, what the listeners have had to say this year, and a special two-part quiz in which Frankie proves she's as clever as anyone from the Whitehaven Four, and Adam proves that his level of general knowledge is "Damned Offensive"

There's even a special festive appearance from David Suchet himself...
