  1. I’m sad how Toby Stephens with that mustache appears to be aging into Tom Selleck. This role doesn’t do justice to Toby Stephens’ supreme hotness.

  2. This is an Agatha Christie story, done many times, but I did like this adaptation because of the sheer volume of talent involved.

    However, I’m sorry Aidan: that’s a 21st Century body, not something that would have been seen in the 30s (actually anywhere other than the last 30 years, unless it was at the body building gym).

    1. That is exactly the issue i have with Jamie in Outlander. I keep thinking 21stC body builder not tough 17thC Highlander.

    2. I’m sorry, but some guys actually did have bodies like that back in the 30’s. A good number of actors were that level of muscularity, as were a lot of athletes and manual laborers.

      That’s not a “bodybuilder” level body– then or now– just an athletic body.

      I’m not sure what the backstory on Turner’s character is, but he’s described as an “adventurer” above, so he may have engaged in a fair amount of physical activity.

      But hey, at least his body hair wasn’t obviously “manscaped”, like Jeremy Piven’s chest was in his shirtless scenes as “Mr. Selfridge”.

  3. We were able to see it on BBC, and I immediately thought “I need that suit!” The purple and green are fabulous. I’m assuming it would be wool suiting? A few of the guys have linen but a can’t imagine that first day suit is anything but woollen.
