Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials cast: Mia McKenna-Bruce and Martin Freeman star
Helena Bonham Carter and Edward Bluemel are also in the cast of the new Netflix adaptation.
If you're looking for a murder mystery to watch, then it's never a bad idea to look to the queen of crime herself, Agatha Christie.
The latest adaptation of one of Christie's works is now available to stream on Netflix, a three-part series from writer Chris Chibnall titled Agatha Christie's Seven Dials.
As with any Christie adaptation worth its salt, this one features a stacked cast, including the likes of Martin Freeman and Helena Bonham Carter. Meanwhile, Mia McKenna-Bruce heads up the cast as Bundle, a young woman who becomes an amateur sleuth when it appears that a practical joke at a country house party has gone horribly, murderously wrong.
But who else stars in the series, who do they all play and where might you have seen them before?
