A full-cast BBC Radio 4 dramatisation of an Agatha Christie story. On a flight from Le Bourget to Croydon, on which Hercule Poirot is an apprehensive passenger, a woman is found dead. A doctor on board is inclined to put it down to a wasp-sting, but Poirot suspects that a poisoned dart is the real cause
- &, perhaps rather too conveniently, a blow pipe is dicovered stuffed down the back of his seat. Clearly the murder can only have been committed by one of the passengers or crew on the plane. But which one? Poirot, Japp & M. Fournier of the Surete will make their way through shoals of red herrings before reaching an utterly unexpected conclusion, Audiobooks, 2 CD, 85 minutes.

Market day in the ancient town of St Denis in south-west France. EU hygiene inspectors have been swooping on Frances markets, while the locals hide contraband cheese in their houses & call the Brussels bureaucrats Gestapo.

Police Captain Bruno Courreges supports their resistance. Although, here in what was once Vichy France, words like Gestapo & resistance still carry a profound resonance.

When an old man, head of an immigrant North African family, is found murdered, suspicion falls on the son of the local doctor, found in flagrante playing sex games surrounded by Nazi paraphernalia.
