Hallowe'en Party

Famous crime novelist Ariadne Oliver is invited to a Hallowe'en Party and soon the conversation turns to her grisly novels.

Ariadne decides to call upon the services of her old friend, Hercule Poirot, to solve the case.

Five Little Pigs

Miss Carla Lemarchant feels she cannot get married untill she knows the truth about her parents. Sixteen years ago, her mother was accused and convicted of poisoning her father, the famous painter Amyas Crale. On her fwenty-first birthday, Carla learns of her family history when she reads a letter written by her mother before her death, in which she denies murdering her husband. But if her mother didn't kill Amyas Crale, who did? Poirot is faced with a formidable challenge to find the real killer, with nothing to go on except five suspects who fit strangely into the pattern of a child's nursery rhyme.

Full cast dramatisation.
