Grab your notebook and cosiest blanket, because there is more murder mystery fare headed your way. The Traitors may have revealed the identity of the Secret Traitor, but for the amateur sleuths amongst us, there are plenty of other telly mysteries to unravel as we try to fight off the January blues. One that is bound to be a real treat is Agatha Christie's Seven Dials.
A three-part adaptation of the 1929 novel by the queen of crime herself, Agatha Christie, Netflix's Seven Dials promises to offer up all of the elements of a really good whodunnit: a raging 1920s house party at a country estate, a prank gone wrong, and an espionage plot. What more could we want?

To top it all off, the new adaptation is brought to life with a truly thrilling all-star cast, with national treasures like Helena Bonham-Carter and Martin Freeman join rising stars like How to Have Sex's Mia McKenna-Bruce and Lady Jane's Ed Bluemel. We are very, very sold. But when can we actually start the binge?

What is the plot of Agatha Christie's Seven Dials?
Listen, I don't want to give anything away, so if you haven't read the novel, I'll just give you a taster: a lavish house party is underway at Chimneys. The guests decide to play a prank on Gerry Wade, a guest with a habit of oversleeping, setting eight different alarm clocks to go off on after another (which sounds like my daily iPhone routine if we're being honest). However, the pranks goes wrong – someone ends up dead, one alarm clock goes missing. And that's all I'll say. Lady Eileen "Bundle" Brent (McKenna-Bruce) takes on the role of amateur detective and finds herself swept up in a complicated case involved nightclubs, gambling and government plots. Juicy stuff!
Glamour gives a verdict on the best telly coming in 2026.
