The Telegraph is reporting that David Suchet is set to begin filming the current season of Agatha Christie's Poirot. The first episode of the four to be filmed is The Clocks in which Poirot must determine whether a woman is responsible for the murder of a man found stabbed. The title comes from the four frozen clocks that read 13 minutes past 4 in the room where the dead body is discovered. The Clocks was originally published by Christie in 1963.
"After 21 years filming Poirot I am as excited as ever to be returning to the role and very much looking forward to filming with such a wonderful guest cast," says Suchet.
ITV has yet to schedule a date to broadcast the new season, but is expected to be early 2010. It is likely the episodes will air on PBS in the US soon thereafter.
