Towards Zero Review: A Sizzling Agatha Christie Murder Mystery
Matthew Rhys shines in this BBC One three-parter.

Lady Tressillianâs will, and the changes sheâs making to it, are of interest to the âbrood of vipersâ â as she calls them â writhing around her ankles. Her fortune creates a contest between its various claimants, but the real rot of these characters was set in long before now. A story unspools of childhood rivalry and hidden secrets that youâll forget by the time the credits have rolled. What endures of Towards Zero is its glittering style, and Matthew Rhysâ Inspector Leach.
Leach (a new composite character based on several in Christieâs 1944 novel) is Towards Zeroâs main success. His journey from disillusionment to belief is the storyâs emotional foothold, thanks to Rhysâ poignant depiction of a man destroyed by the First World War and casting about for a reason to continue. Without him, this three-parter about the horrid rich would have all the pathos of an episode of Real Housewives â great outfits and enviable decor, but whereâs the humanity?Â
Itâs a glam story of the kind youâd carry home from the shop in a crisp-cornered bag with ribbons for handles. Thereâs none of the grime or sweaty deviancy of Sarah Phelpsâ recent Christie adaptations (for context, I loved every sordid syllable of those), and none of their politics, despite being set in the 1930s â a time when no aristocratic country house was complete without at least one resident Fascist. The looming Second World War apparently casts no shadow on Gullâs Point.Â
Instead, this is a traditional head-in-the-sand Christie adaptation from screenwriter Rachel Bennette and director Sam Yates, one more interested in gorgeous 1930s tailoring and simmering looks exchanged over the fish course than it is in 20th century history. Itâs diverting and sizzling, but doesnât quite get under the skin of its twisted characters. Nor does it deliver on the promise of a lighter Christie. Huston, Hyland and Vasan, all talented comedians in other contexts, are straitjacketed by the demands of a melodramatic plot and unable to add lightness to this intense story. Clarke Peters as family lawyer Mr Treves does manage to cut through the turgid atmosphere with a twinkle and the kind of sonorous voice any TV show would kill to have as its narrator.
Treat it as a murder minibreak: three hours in sunny Devon that you certainly wonât regret spending, but â Rhysâ poignant performance aside â wonât trouble you much after theyâre over. Bon voyage.
Towards Zero starts on Sunday March 2nd at 9pm on BBC One. All episodes will be available on BBC iPlayer.Â
