Freeman also echoed Chibnall's comments, describing Seven Dials as having "a different flavour" to what people have typically come to expect from Christie adaptations.
"And... it has a different flavour. It has its own little world, still very her, but a different department of her. That was really interesting, seeing that, it was like the youth wing of Agatha Christie, you know."
