Agatha Christie's Poirot: Curtain (2013)
The final ever case for the Belgian detective... Confined to a wheelchair and crippled with arthritis, the now elderly Hercule Poirot (David Suchet) is reunited with his old companion Captain Hastings (Hugh Fraser) at Styles - the house where it all began. Since they last met, both have faced tragedy; Hastings is a widower, and Poirot has succumbed to a life-threatening heart condition.
But the great detective’s brain remains as sharp and active as ever, and he tells his loyal friend with utmost certainty that Styles is again harbouring a killer – and it is simply a matter of time before the axe falls once more.

Philip plays...

He is an able commander, a fine shot and a big game hunter, but a little forgetful, often repeating stories he has been told but passing them off as his own. He is a guest at Styles, having recently inherited a vast antiquated country house in the neighbourhood from his uncle.
