Agatha Christie & Call the Midwife Stars Reveal Their Secrets!

There’s nothing quite as exciting as when the BBC airs one of its high-budget adaptations of an Agatha Christie novel, making every viewing day special.

This coming Sunday marks the debut of Towards Zero, a novel Agatha Christie penned in 1944. Eighty years later, screenwriter Rachel Bennette has given it a more modern, provocative spin compared to the original by the Queen of Crime. With its stylish and youthful cast supervised by Anjelica Huston, it’s the perfect escapade during these gloomy, wintry months.

Read what the contemplative Huston has to say to us in this week’s issue of TopMob.

Discussing comforting television, don’t forget to catch the finale of Call the Midwife. Here, we chat with creator and writer Heidi Thomas about her deep-rooted affection for this TV series that has become an integral part of her life. It’s a poignant tale that interweaves personal stories of family loss and renewal.

Nancy Corrigan’s (portrayed by Megan Cusack) wedding scene signals the exit of her character from the series. It’s a mix of happiness and sadness, but Heidi Thomas reminds us that since the show is commissioned until 2027, there are still numerous challenges, heartaches, and delightful incidents to look forward to.
