England. 1925. At a lavish country house party, a practical joke appears to have gone horribly, murderously wrong. It will be up to the unlikeliest of sleuths, the fizzingly inquisitive Lady Eileen 'Bundle' Brent, to unravel a chilling plot that will change her life, cracking wide open the country house mystery.

One of Agatha Christie’s finest novels, The Seven Dials Mystery from 1929 is coming to the screen in a new three episode series from Netflix on 15 January. At this unique event, cast members Mia McKenna Bruce, Helena Bonham Carter, Martin Freeman and writer Chris Chibnall talk about the making of this hotly anticipated release.

Seven Dials is penned by Broadchurch and Doctor Who creator Chris Chibnall and directed by Chris Sweeney (The Tourist, Back to Life). Executive Producers are Chris Sweeney, Suzanne Mackie (The Crown) though her company Orchid Pictures, Chris Sussman (Good Omens), Chris Chibnall through his company Imaginary Friends, James Prichard of Agatha Christie Limited and Andy Stebbing. Joanna Crow is Series Producer.
