Agatha Christie · 2 Audible UK recordings compared
Short answer
Emilia Fox. The only complete recording. The 3-hour Jane Collingwood listing is a Collins graded reader, sold as Level 5, B2+, not an abridgement of the novel.
The recordings, compared
| Narrator | Length | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Emilia Fox Our pick | 7 hrs 11 mins | Complete novel | The complete novel, and the only full recording on Audible UK. |
| Jane Collingwood | 3 hrs 5 mins | Collins graded reader (Level 5, B2+) | NOT the novel. Audible's product slug says "Why-Didnt-They-Ask-Evans-B2-Collins-Agatha-Christie-ELT-Readers". |
The recording we recommend is also on Audiobooks.com — the same Emilia Fox reading, listed at 7 hrs 11 mins when we checked on 11 September 2026. Their one-credit plan is listed at £7.99 a month before applicable taxes, and its credits expire after three months — the two models compared. We earn a commission on that link.
