    This is the revival series.

    After closing up shop, Poirot is called back into action to solve two mysteries: 1) The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, and 2) Lord Edgware Dies. In the second mystery Poirot re-opens his London Office, indicating that he is back in action. Hercule Poirot wasn't ready for retirement and he takes on the new mysteries with zest & energy.
