Happy Birthday to Agatha Christie!

It's so wonderful that her remarkable legacy has brought people from right across the world to celebrate the Queen of Crime in her home town. Thanks you all so much for your support.

It's the final day of the Fringe Festival today and there's another packed programme on the cards, with events on steam trains and boats, excursions to Burgh Island, an event in the church where Agatha donated a stained-glass window, underground cinema in Kents Cavern and events at Greenway House and Gardens.

Tonight there are several theatrical treats on the cards, and literally something for everyone. The Mousetrap is on at the Princess Theatre Torquay (we saw it last night and the cast is excellent!) and the TOADS production of The Mirror Crack'd continues its run at the charming Little Theatre - Torquay.

For something completely different, we would highly recommend cult hit, Solve Along A Murder She Wrote at the Palace Theatre Paignton. Coming to us straight from a critically acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, this is a unique and hilarious night featuring a screening of an episode, with games, prizes and audience participation.

Tickets for all of these shows are available here:
