Hugh Laurie adapted the Agatha Christie novel for BritBox in 2022.

Skillfully done. Hilarious dialogue.

100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Lucy Boynton is superb as Frankie Derwent.

Trivia ➙ she dated her Bohemian Rhapsody co-star Rami Malek from 2017 to 2023.

The book is a non-Marple, non-Poirot Christie, which gives the writer adapting it some freedom.

The mystery hinges on the cryptic question of the title – why didn’t they ask Evans? – pronounced by a dying man, after a fall from the cliffs on a north Wales golf course.

Bobby and his friend Lady Frances Derwent have adventures as they solve the mystery of the man’s last words.

The three-part series became available on BritBox on April 2022.
