After collapsing during dinner, Poirot is banished to the resort island of Sandy Covc for a two-week recuperative stay. Subject to a taxing (and decidedly undignified) regimen of diet and exercise, he is distracted from his plight by growing suspicions that death awaits one of his fellow guests. When the body of Atlena Stew is discovered on the beach it is up to Poirot to determine who killed her. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)

Solid and conservative work on the part of the director, a traditional concert by Suchet and a rather toiling, but all the better gradating plot in terms of the script. By the way, an episode that clearly illustrates that the power of a detective (as well as the power of a psychoanalyst) begins only when the order is irreversibly disturbed (until then, he is only a passive "evil-Precog" with no possibility to intervene).

I enjoy these longer episodes. You can't even really tell that it was filmed after the year 2000. Hercule Poirot is still funny, plus you can see that his character has evolved. That's very good. Moreover, this case is wonderfully tangled, which is evident even in the final resolution, which is very inventive. An excellent episode.
