Teresa Peschel is the author of Agatha Christie, She Watched: one woman’s plot to watch 201 Agatha Christie movies without murdering the director, screenwriter, cast or her husband. For this talk she will be discussing the various international films from around the world and how other cultures adapt Agatha's work. Expect a fascinating whistlestop tour around the world (with film clips throughout) exploring both the cultural differences and the universal similarities in the way that Agatha's stories are told.

Information

Getting to the venue

The Spanish Barn is in the grounds of Torre Abbey. This is on Torquay seafront and walkable from most hotels in the area. It is also right next to Torquay Train Station. The nearest car park is Torre Valley - Torbay Council

Accessibility

There is a drop-off point and limited parking within the grounds for disabled visitors. Entry to the Spanish Barn is relatively level, but there are a few cobble stones to cross, before entering the completely flat interior. We have space for wheelchairs, although if you let us know in advance, we can ensure that there is ample dedicated space for the number of wheelchair users. We have also raised the height of the main stage this year, so that guest speakers can easily be seen. We also have two TV screens midway down the barn screening what is happening on the stage. We also have a disabled toilet available to the rear of the Spanish Barn.

If you have any particular access requirements or enquiries, do please get in touch and we will do whatever we feasibly can to accommodate you. Please email admin@iacf-uk.org
