# He was perfect for the time they were filmed in
big budgets, and a plethora of hollywood greats around him.
It just worked.

Marple on the other hand, Joan Hickson all the way, even better than Margaret Rutherford, and I don't say that lightly

# Reasons please
I prefer Suchet, but can't think of a legitimate reason why.

# I haven't got a legitimate reason
I just love Ustinov, I think he fits better and he's got a lovely face. See? I'm crap.

Ustinov is Poirot. That other young upstart is an imposter.
