Numerous references in early episodes place the series primarily in 1935, progressing to 1936 by series four. Most references remain to 1936, moving slowly forward to 1937 by series eleven and 1938 by <i><a href="#Series_12_(2010–11)">Murder on the Orient Express</a></i>. <i><a href="#Series_13_(2013)">The Big Four</a></i> is set explicitly in early 1939. The most notable exceptions to this chronology are <i><a href="#Series_3_(1990–91)">The Mysterious Affair at Styles</a></i>, which narrates Poirot's first case in 1917, and <i><a href="#Series_13_(2013)">Curtain: Poirot's Last Case</a></i>, which is set primarily in 1949. <i><a href="#Series_5_(1993)">The Chocolate Box</a></i> shows Poirot in the early 1900s, though the framing narrative remains consistent with the series' usual timeframe. </p><p>The episodes aired from series 9 in 2003 featured a radical shift in tone from the previous series. The humour of the earlier series was downplayed with each episode being presented as serious drama and saw the introduction of gritty elements not present in the Christie stories being adapted. Recurrent motifs in the additions included drug use, sex, abortion, homosexuality, and a tendency toward more visceral imagery. The visual style of later episodes was correspondingly different: particularly, an overall darker tone; and austere modernist or <a href="/wiki/Art_Deco" title="Art Deco">Art Deco</a> locations and decor, widely used earlier in the series, being largely dropped in favour of more lavish settings (epitomised by the re-imagining of Poirot's home as a larger, more lavish apartment).<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The series logo was redesigned (the full opening title sequence had not been used since series 6 in 1996), and the main theme motif, though used often, was usually featured subtly and in sombre arrangements; this has been described as a consequence of the novels adapted being darker and more psychologically driven.<sup id="cite_ref-Screenonline.org.uk_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Screenonline.org.uk-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, a more upbeat string arrangement of the theme music is used for the end credits of "<a href="/wiki/Hallowe%27en_Party" title="Hallowe'en Party">Hallowe'en Party</a>", "<a href="/wiki/The_Clocks" title="The Clocks">The Clocks</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/Dead_Man%27s_Folly" title="Dead Man's Folly">Dead Man's Folly</a>".

Hercule Poirot and how he portrayed him.<sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was broadcast in the United Kingdom on the same evening as the final episode, "Curtain". </p><p>Suchet visits the Greenway Estate, Agatha Christie's summer home, recollecting how he met her daughter Rosalind Hicks and her husband Anthony Hicks for their approval before he began filming. He meets Christie's grandson Mathew Prichard who recounts how his grandmother found the character amongst Belgian refugees in Torquay. There's a visit to the permanent Poirot exhibition at Torquay Museum, to which he presented the cane he used in the television series. </p><p>Suchet acknowledges the first stage and film adaptations of the books with actors such as <a href="/wiki/Charles_Laughton" title="Charles Laughton">Charles Laughton</a> on the London stage in <i>Alibi</i>, an adaptation of <i>The Murder of Roger Ackroyd</i>, in 1928. <i>Alibi</i> was filmed in 1931 with Austin Trevor but is now lost. The oldest surviving film portrayal from 1934 was <i>Lord Edgware Dies</i> again with Austin Trevor portraying Poirot. Suchet notes a conscious decision was made by the film company to portray Poirot without a moustache. </p><p>Films featuring <a href="/wiki/Albert_Finney" title="Albert Finney">Albert Finney</a> and <a href="/wiki/Peter_Ustinov" title="Peter Ustinov">Peter Ustinov</a> are also featured. Suchet reveals that he read the books and wrote down 93 notes about the character that he went on to use in his portrayal. The descriptions in the books helped him discover the voice he would use, and the rapid mincing gait. </p><p>Suchet also goes to Florin Court, a place that the production company chose to represent his home Whitehaven Mansions. There he meets first producer Brian Eastman, with whom he discusses the set that was built based on the flats, and Eastman's decision to fix the stories in 1936. Suchet also visits composer <a href="/wiki/Christopher_Gunning" title="Christopher Gunning">Christopher Gunning</a> who had composed four themes for Eastman, the first being Gunning's favourite. Eastman chose the fourth after having Gunning darken the tone. </p><p>Suchet travels to <a href="/wiki/Brussels" title="Brussels">Brussels</a>, where he is feted by the police chief and mayor. He then goes to <a href="/wiki/Ellezelles" title="Ellezelles">Ellezelles</a>, which claims to be the birthplace of Poirot, and he is shown a birth certificate as proof. It says the date was 1 April, "<a href="/wiki/April_Fools%27_Day" title="April Fools' Day">April Fools' Day</a>", with no year mentioned. Finally, Suchet travels on the Orient Express and recounts filming the episode "Dead Man's Folly" last at Greenway to finish on a high note. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Novels_or_stories_not_included_in_the_series">Novels or stories not included in the series</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Agatha_Christie%27s_Poirot&action=edit&section=13" title="Edit section: Novels or stories not included in the series"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Suchet was proud to have completed the entire Poirot canon by the time of the broadcast of the final episode, only slightly short of the target he had set for himself in a 2007 interview of completing the entire canon before his 65th birthday.<sup id="cite_ref-48" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-48"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>A number of Poirot short stories were not directly adapted for the series.
