David Suchet and Anna Chancellor as Hercule Poirot and Virginie Mesnard ♥
AGATHA CHRISTIE'S POIROT 5x06 "The Chocolate Box"
"The story gave me the chance to show Poirot's emotional side, for as part of the film, he loses his heart to a young woman, Mademoiselle Virginie Mesnard, who asks him to investigate a case of what may be murder, but is being called a natural death by the doctors. Virginie was played by the lovely Anna Chancellor, then still just twenty-seven, the year before she leapt to prominence as Henrietta, or 'Duckface', as she was known, in Richard Curtis's award-winning film Four Weddings and a Funeral. Then still in her bohemian period, Anna was quite superb in our film, bewitching the younger Poirot completely, and presenting him with the tiny silver vase for his lapel that he wore filled with wild flowers from that day onwards."
"In fact, that never happened in Dame Agatha's original story, but was another example of the screenwriter allowing Poirot an opportunity to display rather more of himself to the audience on television than he did in the original story. Filming it made me truly happy, for there was Poirot as a younger man, pursuing the case against the wishes of his superiors, losing his heart to Virginie, even running through the streets of Brussels - not something the older Hercule Poirot would ever have allowed himself to do. It was a breath of fresh air, and a joy to do."
- David Suchet, Poirot and Me
