Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Part of a very hard to find series called PARTNERS IN CRIME, written by Agatha Christie, starring Francesca Annis, and James Warwick. The series is rich in production value, design and style set against the vintage background of England in the 1920's and 1930's. This series was the first complete VHS series released featuring Christie characters...before Miss Marple and Hercule Poirot were filmed and released! Beautifully done, humorous, the characters meld together as if born to do so. Tommy and Tuppence Beresford, having met during the war, reunite and propose to become adventurers, solving mysteries for pay. Begun as a lark, they soon stumble onto a bizarre international plot to overthrow the government of England. Who is this mysterious Mr Brown, the criminal mastermind that many witnesses have met, but cant describe, that frightens all who meet him? And where is the secret treaty thought to have been lost during the sinking of the Lusitania? Many plot twists and turns, a budding romance, and the quick wits and ingenuity displayed by Annis and Warwick make this one of the finest reproductions of Christie's written work seen. A must have for any mystery lover's collection.
