Agatha Christie's Towards Zero & Call the Midwife stars are on this week's Radio Times
Anjelica Huston, Clarke Peters and Matthew Rhys share the secrets of their racy adaptation of a Christie classic, plus Call the Midwife invites you to the feel-good finale of the year!
It's always a red letter day when the BBC broadcasts one of its big-budget Agatha Christie adaptations.
This Sunday sees the premiere of Towards Zero, a story she wrote in 1944. Some 80 years later, screenwriter Rachel Bennette has given it a racier twist than the Queen of Crime's original, but with its young and glamorous cast, overseen by grand dame Anjelica Huston, it's just what we need in these dark, cold months.
Read what the contemplative Huston has to say to us in this week's issue of Radio Times.
Talking of comfort viewing, please don't miss the last in the series of Call the Midwife. We talk to creator and writer Heidi Thomas about why she's so passionate about the TV show that has taken over her life. It's a personal story of family tragedy and hope.
The wedding of Nancy Corrigan (played by Megan Cusack) also marks the departure of her character from the show. It's a bittersweet moment, but as Heidi Thomas points out, with the show commissioned until 2027, there are plenty more trials, tribulations and joyful moments to come.
And don't miss our guide to how to watch the Oscar-nominated films.
