12+Season 13
Synopsis
The final run, Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989) Season 13, is ready to watch online on iFILM — five last cases from 2013 that close out David Suchet's quarter-century in the part.
It begins with "Elephants Can Remember," where novelist Ariadne Oliver pulls Poirot into a shooting that left two people dead more than a decade earlier and was never explained. Then "The Big Four" sets a conspiracy behind a peace movement as Europe drifts toward war. A country murder game turns into a real corpse, and a hunt for a vanished maid carries Poirot to the Swiss Alps to rebuild his shaken confidence. The last episode brings him home to Styles, the house where his very first English case unfolded almost thirty years before.
Suchet plays the detective all the way to the ending Christie wrote for him, refusing to soften the toll age takes. The mood here is genuinely dusk-lit, and the closing hours hit hardest if you've watched the whole arc. Stream Poirot Season 13 online on iFILM.
