Your occasional reminder that the main villain in the Take On Me video (who pursues Morten Harket with a pipe wrench) is played by Philip Jackson, who was Chief Inspector Japp in Poirot.

He has been recently interviewed on the Labours of Hercule podcast, highly recommended if you are a Poirot fan.

As a person of a certain age I watched this video frame by frame on vhs just to see how it was made.

Read this as I am listening to a Poirot adaptation, having not long thought ‘Philip Jackson is by far the best Japp’

His Japp was much less stupid than many I have heard. I love Poirot so much

I've not long finished rewatching them all. Couldn't face watching the last though.

I’m listening to a load I have on audible, some have John Moffat as Poirot and some are read by David Suchet and/or Hugh Fraser. Lovely stuff

Suchet/Fraser are to me perfection.

David Suchet played a good Japp in Thirteen At Dinner, if memory serves.
