Television

Agatha Christie Ltd is responsible for licensing all of Christie’s works for television worldwide and in the UK and US. We work with leading production companies to produce shows such as The Pale Horse and The ABC Murders.

ACL is currently looking to build on the success of international partnerships such as the ones with Escazal in France and Fuji TV in Japan.

We do not accept unsolicited scripts but are always happy to talk to leading broadcasters, production companies or film producers.
