All aboard the mystery express!
This episode, Mart and Trev don their finest moustaches and delve into the luxurious world of Murder on the Orient Express.
First stop: the 1974 classic, where Albert Finney's Poirot navigates a train full of suspects with more secrets than luggage.
Then, we fast-forward to the 2017 remake, where Kenneth Branagh's extravagant facial hair takes centre stage in a visually stunning, albeit CGI-heavy, rendition.
Join us as we compare the twists, turns, and taches of both films, pondering whether modern flair can outshine vintage charm.
Two long-time friends.
