Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials creator on rites of passage, Broadchurch and Sherlock comparisons, and what you should watch next: ‘It doesn’t feel like we cheated anything’

Helena Bonham Carter looks on as Mia McKenna-Bruce holds a mask to her face in the background.

If you've watched some of the more recent made-for-TV Agatha Christie adaptations over the last five years (and Kenneth Branagh's Poirot movies, depending on your opinion), you'll know that not everybody is out for the job. Thankfully, Netflix has called Chris Chibnall in to head up Agatha Christie's Seven Dials.

Clearly, the man knows his way around an impeccable crime drama. He's been behind Life on Mars, multiple episodes of Doctor Who and Torchwood, and a little-known TV show called Broadchurch.
