Former Poirot star Sir David Suchet, who enjoyed a stellar 24-year run as Agatha Christie's moustachioed sleuth, will guest star in the 60-minute episode, billed as a "locked-room murder mystery".
"Trapped by a blizzard and cut off from the outside world, the guests must spend the night with a killer in their midst," the synopsis teases. "With John reluctantly pulled into one of his strangest puzzles yet, the race is on for the Taylors to solve the crime before Christmas."
In addition to Suchet, the Ludwig Christmas special also features Jason Flemyng (Trigger Point), Joe Wilkinson (Celebrity Traitors), Cathy Tyson (Blue Lights), Alexandra Roach (Nightsleeper) and Kiell Smith-Bynoe (Ghosts).
Mitchell commented: "I have long been a huge admirer of Sir David Suchet's work and have watched every episode of Poirot several times, so it was a dream come true for me when he agreed to appear in the Ludwig Christmas Special.
"He was an absolute joy to work and spend time with - funny, interesting and generous - and his performance in the programme is wonderful."
