Before long, Poirot's prediction comes to fruition and soon Hercule Poirot will find himself investigating his last case. Upon his arrival, Hastings learns that Poirot has an a secret motive for inviting his friend - Poirot fears that a murder shall take place, and even he doesn't have any idea who the perpetrator could be. Poirot invites his old friend, Captain Arthur Hastings (Hugh Fraser) and Hasting's daughter, Judith, to the house as well. The detective returns to Styles, the mansion at which he solved his first case in England, which has been turned into a guest house. Hercule Poirot (David Suchet) is ailing and confined to a wheelchair. What with the show's penultimate episode, "The Labours of Hercules," being a tremendous let-down, did the show's conclusion improve any?

This is all folks - "Curtain" marks the final episode of "Agatha Christie's Poirot," the brilliant ITV detective series which has been running for more than twenty years.
