"The Adventure of Johnnie Waverly" is from the first season of "Agatha Christie's Poirot," which is still running today. David Suchet is probably the closest to the books in his interpretation of Poirot - so much so that when one sees him speaking with his native British accent, it comes as a shock.
The story concerns a man who comes to Poirot with a note from a kidnapper saying that the man's son will be kidnapped on a certain day at noon. Scotland Yard wasn't interested. Poirot and Hastings travel to the man's estate and finally, Scotland Yard does show up. But despite all of this, the boy is kidnapped.
I figured this out in about two minutes, but I can't figure out if I'm smart or if I saw this in 1989.
Enjoyable, but there are better episodes of "Poirot."
