This Tommy and Tuppence Beresford takes a little getting used to.

Maybe it is because I read the books or saw the (1983) (TV Mini-Series with Francesca Annis and James Warwick), that it takes some time to accept the characters in this (2015) (TV Mini-Series with Jessica Rain and David Williams.) then when you think about it the characters are what they are supposed to be and not particularly what you would have written them as.
This is a 1950s period piece, and the characters, clothing, cars, etc., are quite convincing.
We follow the partners as they move from their mundane life as beekeepers to quasi-investigators of spies and other despicable characters. With the help of friends and relatives, they foil evil plots against man, king, and country.
Agatha Christie was not smothered by the TV scriptwriting. There are, of course, changes for the different media. It took a bit of time to get used to, as I would not have given a good rating until well into the story.
