I can’t wait to return to the International Agatha Christie Festival in September 2026. This year, my talk looks at some of the lesser-known film and TV adaptations of Christie’s work from the last century (almost!). It’s at 4pm on Wednesday 16 September, and you can book tickets here.

Gray and I will also be recording a new episode of The Swinging Christies with a live audience – The Pale Caribbean Mirror Crack’d, all about adaptations of these Swinging titles from the 1980s and 1990s. Last year’s live event was a hoot, and I’m sure this’ll be just as fun! Tickets available here, the event takes place on Friday 18 September.

Gray also has his own talk this year, a fascinating discussion of the mysterious case of Roger Styles… Tickets available here.

Gray and I are really pleased to be returning to the International Agatha Christie Festival’s Spring Gathering event in Torquay on 11 April 2026, presenting a new live episode of The Swinging Christies. Tickets are limited and bound to sell out again so grab one now!

Just a quick update to say what a fantastic day I had at the Agatha Christie Festival Spring Gathering, which included the unveiling of the new statue of Christie on Torquay Harbour. Don’t miss it if you’re in the area!

Gray and I had a wonderful time speaking in front of such a warm audience about our ‘Story so far…’ – we can’t wait to return in September for our live recording of a new episode. I’ll also be speaking about Witness for the Prosecution in my own talk, sharing some lovely and rare images and information. Tickets for both talks are still available but selling fast!

I’m writing this update happily ensconced in the guest room at Greenway while I work on my next book, as I’m taking the chance to visit for a few days while I work on my book. Talk about atmospheric!
