Poirot Collection

Hello, I have the Poirot Collection - DVDs plus magainze - just received the most recent one which was Appointment With Death - a lovely surprise as I don't think it has even been shown on TV yet.

However, on looking through my collection I realise I am missing issue 32.  Can someone please tell me is that Murder on the Orient express?

Thank ; you.

Sorry, I thought you meant the Poirot collection. Ignore mine then, if you meant the Agatha Christie collection and not the Poirot collection.

THe only e-mail I can find is the one that came with my last letter, just before I got the discs 62 and 63.

 poirot@jacklinservice.com

there was also a phone number if you want this as well.

0845 148 9265

I think I may have given before in this thread, but they are still the most up-to-date that I have.

Hope it helps.

Hello,

Does anyone have a current email for the company who supplies the Poirot Collection Magazine/Dvd? Cant seem to find one online. Thanks in advance!

malcodd 25 Nov 11 at 11:08 a.m. GMT

The Clocks will be shown on tv on Christmas Day in the UK - so perhaps issues 64 and 65 will be made available then. The remaining 5 episodes will be screened next year - so there will eventually be 70 dvds/magazines in the set.

What is the Poirot Collection you refer to?  Is it the television series featuring Miss Lemon, Hastings, Japp?  I have all of those.  I also have most of the full length movie DVD's with Suchet. 

What is the magazine you refer to?  I have never heard of a Poirot magazine, but I am very interested!  Please, more info!

My email to the partwork people, sent three times over the last month:

Thanks Gazery!

Gazery 19 Oct 11 at 5:58 p.m. GMT

I have not yet received The Clocks or Orient Express, nor have I heard anything of them to arrive. I have got all the others though.

mictko 19 Oct 11 at 1:06 a.m. GMT

Hey all, just wondering if anyone can tell me if the 2 new ones came out at all? Clocks and Orient Express?

Thanks

mictko 10 Oct 11 at 10:32 p.m. GMT

Hello all, has anyone recieved issue 64 or 65? Any news on these? Also, does anyone have issues 58-61 for sale? I didnt get them over here in Ireland! Thanks to all for any answers or updates!

tony0765 23 May 11 at 8:24 p.m. GMT

Thanks Gazery, i got a letter as i have got a new debit card since the collection ended and it's got the wrong phone number, don't know how they managed that!

Gazery 20 May 11 at 8:02 p.m. GMT

Just thought I'd let you know that I have just received my 2 new Poirots and it contains a letter saying that I will receive my next set in approximately 4 weeks time. So hopefully they will be Orient Express and Clocks. I don't know if I've said this but: I just love the magazines that come with them.

McGinty 11 Apr 11 at 7:49 p.m. GMT

Thanks Gazery, I'll call them tomorrow. Appreciate you letting me know.

Gazery 11 Apr 11 at 6:15 p.m. GMT

I got a letter too, very excited for this and can't wait to receive it. Just love the magazines that come with them.

McGinty it comes with a telephone number and an e-mail address to contact them if you don't want to receive them, but it could be worth you trying them to get it sent to your new address.

The phone number is 0845 148 9265

the e-mail is poirot@jacklinservice.com

Hope you manage to get them.

McGinty 09 Apr 11 at 6:46 p.m. GMT

Thanks for that awwdabaaby. Please could you let me know contact details - email or otherwise, I've moved house since the last issue and would like to carry on collecting them.

awwdabaaby 08 Apr 11 at 11:38 a.m. GMT

Just thought you all may like to know, i recieved a letter from the Poirot Collection this morning, issues 62 and 63, Three Act Tragedy and Hallow'een Party will be sent out shortly, they must be going to complete the whole series, The Clocks and Murder On The Orient Express should be the next two issues

PortiaDaCosta 03 Jun 10 at 9:20 a.m. GMT

Many thanks for your help, McGinty. I will try to obtain these magazines in order to complete my collection. 

McGinty 19 May 10 at 9:26 p.m. GMT

58 - Cat Among the Pigeons

59 - Mrs McGinty's Dead

60 - Third Girl

61 - Appointment With Death

And as already written about, that was the end of the collection.

PortiaDaCosta 19 May 10 at 10:08 a.m. GMT

I wonder if anyone could tell me what the last published magazine is? I have obtained up to #57 via Ebay. I have all the episodes in DVD boxed sets, apart from Three Act Tragedy, but I'm interested in the magazines themselves for research into Thirties life, for a possible writing project.

If there are issues beyond #57, could anyone possibly be kind enough to list which episodes they each cover?

Thanks in advance for any help!

McGinty 11 May 10 at 8:32 a.m. GMT

It's not yet been released Victoria, and it won't be released as part of this collection - it's finished. We'll have to wait and buy the new episodes as a box set from ITV

victoria_jones_1 10 May 10 at 7:36 p.m. GMT

Have there been any more additions to this collection?  I am waiting for Three Act Tragedy which was shown on TV some time last year but I can't find it on Amazon or Ebay so maybe it hasn't been released yet?

McGinty 15 Jan 09 at 11:46 a.m. GMT

Appointment With Death was issue no. 61.All the episodes have been issued, whether they will pick up again when new episodes are filmed is unknown. I know that some people have found this collection expensive, and I do have to agree. However, the cost has been spread over three years, and I for one do enjoy having each episode on an individual dvd, and no matter what the cost they have brought hours of enjoyment.

robbied84 14 Jan 09 at 11:21 a.m. GMT

I have issues 1-42 of this Poirot Collection, I didn't know it was still going? What issue are they up to now Victoria?

burr 11 Jan 09 at 8:16 a.m. GMT

No. 32 is "The Affair at the Victory Ball".

victoria_jones_1 10 Jan 09 at 3:24 p.m. GMT

Thanks McGinty.  Yes I realised after posting that of course Suchet hasn't done MOTOE.  What confused me (and it doesn't take much) was a trailer for Poirot showing him in a train and of course that was The Mystery of the Blue Train.

However, if you could please let me know what issue 32 is I would be grateful.  Thank you.

McGinty 10 Jan 09 at 10:06 a.m. GMT

I'm away from home at the moment Victoria, so I'm unable to check out what issue 32 was, BUT I can say most certainly that it WASN'T Murder On The Orient Express - it hasn't yet been filmed, it will be this year as part of the new series.
