Summary

And then it was time to talk about the film adaptations (and one televised adaptation, too). We were lucky enough to have Dr. Mark Aldridge, author of Agatha Christie on Screen, back on the podcast for an interview about the many films based on this novel. We hope you enjoy... and that you also forgive us the telephonic tinniness of our voices. Alas, we could not fly to England to interview Mark in person. Maybe next year?

0:00.0	Welcome to All About Agatha, the podcast dedicated to reading and ranking every single
0:09.6	mystery novel written by the Queen of Crime, Dame Agatha Christie, I'm Kemper Donovan.
0:14.7	I'm Catherine Brobeck.
0:16.3	And this week we are doing part two of and then there were none.
0:20.5	Last week we ranked it, we discussed it at great length, and this week I am excited to say

1:15.5	We've been looking forward to discussing and then there were none with you for quite some time.
1:20.8	We always knew that we were going to have to do it because this is of course another
1:25.3	Christy Crown Jewel, I think arguably the Crown Jewel and one that has so many film and television

1:34.3	No problem it's great to be back.
1:36.0	Lovely so I just want to make a disclaimer both for you and anyone listening to this conversation before we start in Ernest, which is,
1:44.8	when we talk about characters in this story, we're going to use their original names
1:49.7	from the book regardless of what they're called in any one adaptation.
1:54.0	Otherwise, I think it would get way too confusing because Lord knows these characters
