Supporting the idea its a Unic.

Sunbar ◊ 2015-04-10 16:46	Well.... my rather poor memory tells me I did see it on a re-run at the time but without any recording of the episode. 1) I instantly connected it with the Poirot van which I had been searching for. 2) I believe it was a night-time scene so not well visible. 3) I hoped it would be re-run, and some of the series is being shown currently, so fingers crossed, I will get it - I don't plan to get the boxed DVD set! -- Last edit: 2015-04-11 12:37:08
