I love most of the British comedies/who dun its,especially the older ones. Sayer,Christy,etc.show you proper conduct with great accents.It's amazing to see the upper class in that era always dressing for the evening,especially the men in tuxs' Extra commentary by the stars give great incite to the series..It's also nice that you suggest others in that same genre.

This dramatization is definitely a treat for mystery loving, Anglophiles. It is quite British, so if you are not in step with British language and syntax, you will have to listen carefully. Altogether delightful and wonderfully entertaining.

I love these English mysterys and this one is very good but it is not as good if you are unable to see the first CD first. I have requested this CD but it will be a long time before it is available.
