Other international release dates were as follows: Belgium, Greece, Luxembourg, New Zealand and The Netherlands (March 2020), France and Norway (April 2020), and Finland (December 2020). Is this too the work of the witches of The Pale Horse, and does this mean he is next on their list? Or can he find a rational explanation and identify the killer before they catch up with him? The Pale Horse premiered on BBC One in the UK in February 2020, and on Amazon Prime in the US in March 2020. Word has it that the witches can do away with a rich relative, by supernatural means alone…ĭespite Mark’s scepticism of the paranormal, he cannot help but be consumed by the increasingly strange and extraordinary things that begin to happen around him. The Pale Horse tells the story of Mark’s investigation into how and why his name came to appear on the list an investigation that leads him to the peculiar home of a trio of rumoured witches, The Pale Horse, in the beautiful village of Much Deeping. One of those named, is widowed antique dealer, Mark Easterbrook, who despite having found love again, with new wife Hermia, is still haunted by the tragic death of his first wife, Delphine. Like Phelps' other BBC adaptations, including The ABC Murders and And Then There Were None, it was a dark, grown-up look at the murder business. Who wrote the list, and who do these names refer to? Agatha Christies The Pale Horse concludes on BBC One, Sunday 16th February at 9pm or catch up soon after on BBC iPlayer. The Pale Horse was another triumphant bit of revisionist Agatha Christie from Sarah Phelps, bringing a level of sinister, eldritch paranoia to what could have been a dusty old whodunnit. When a murder investigation is launched into the death of a young woman, a mysterious list of names is discovered in her shoe, prompting an inquiry not only to find the killer, but also to understand the list of names.
