Your help needed to save Poirot

[Brian Sheridan]

With this month's airing of the tenth series of Poirot, there is word it might be the last despite having only 6 stories left to film to complete the canon.

This excerpt from an online article that tells us how to show our support. Please do.

In early 2010, it was speculated the Poirot series might end before the last six stories (out of 71) are filmed. David Suchet said, "I'm pragmatic and accept that things get cancelled. Of course, there are cutbacks in TV drama and if it is not to be, it is not to be. I will have to be a big boy and accept it.” He added, "Of course I would be very sad if it didn't get recommissioned."

Suchet also stated in April 2010 that if the series were to return, but on a lower budget scale, he would not want to continue making the last episodes if they would compromise the quality of the program.

So now is the time for fans to let ITV know that we would like ITV to produce the last of the Hercule Poirot stories by emailing ITV at viewerservices@itv.com.

Or snail mail.

Possible to use fan power to raise money specifically to pay for the budget shortfall? If enough fans made small contributions …

Or if you are in the US or Canada - make a donation to PBS and earmark it for "Poirot."
