Trivia Time: How much do you know about Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express?

Give Hercule Poirot a run for his money with your sleuthing skills.

No one does a murder mystery quite like Agatha Christie.

Queen of the ‘whodunnits’, her best-seller list is lengthy, with titles including And Then There Were None, Death on the Nile and Peril at End House.

Adapted twice for film, three times for television and once for a Japanese computer game, Murder on the Orient Express is undoubtedly one of Christie’s most loved titles. Featuring Belgian detective Hercule Poirot and his famous moustache, the tale has lent itself to many interpretations, the latest of which sees Kenneth Brannagh step into the title role.

Directing and starring alongside a cast of Hollywood’s elite — Dame Judi Dench, Penélope Cruz, Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer and Daisy Ridley — Brannagh steps in as the enigmatic Poirot to solve the inexplicable murder that takes place while he’s on board the Orient Express.

To celebrate the release of Murder on the Orient Express on DVD and Blu-ray, we’re putting your sleuthing skills to the test. Take the quiz below and see how your knowledge of the mystery drama stacks up — you may even learn a fun fact or two!
