Netflix viewers are eager to find out the number of episodes in the new murder mystery series, Agatha Christie's Seven Dials.
The drama, based on the 1929 novel by the renowned Queen of Crime and penned by Chris Chibnall (Broadchurch, Doctor Who), was released today (Thursday, 15th January) and is anticipated to be a significant success for the streaming platform.
Up-and-coming actress Mia McKenna-Bruce stars as 'it girl' and amateur detective Lady Eileen 'Bundle' Brent, who becomes resolute in her quest to solve a chilling murder mystery.
A party at the stately home, Chimneys, owned by Bundle and her mother Lady Caterham (portrayed by Helena Bonham Carter), takes a dreadful turn when a seemingly innocent prank results in the terrifying death of a guest.
Bundle collaborates with the mysterious Superintendent Battle (Martin Freeman) to investigate the crime. But how many episodes will it take to unravel this mystery?, reports the Mirror.
How many episodes are there in Agatha Christie's Seven Dials?
Those tuning into Netflix today will notice the new murder mystery drama prominently displayed, with three episodes currently available.
The episodes are titled Bundle of Love, Battle Commences and The Finger Points.
Each episode lasts just under an hour, making the series perfectly bingeable in one sitting.
However, some subscribers might be curious if more episodes are on the way, given that the three-part series is considerably shorter than other Netflix titles, which typically consist of around eight episodes.
Viewers may be wondering if a second part of the series is on the horizon, as the streaming platform has recently opted for staggered releases for major hits like Stranger Things and Bridgerton.
However, this isn't the case here, as the three episodes currently available are the only ones produced for Seven Dials to date.

The possibility of additional episodes being produced hinges on whether the mystery drama is renewed for a second season, which will largely depend on the popularity of its initial run with viewers.
The first episode, Bundle of Love, is summarised as follows: "A lavish party at the Caterham estate results in sore heads the next day - and one guest not waking up at all. Grief pushes Bundle to search for answers."
The synopsis for the second episode, Battle Commences, reads: "Bundle's desperate search for the killer takes her from London's seedy underbelly to a country house gathering which could change the course of history."
The third episode, The Finger Points, is described as: "After the police catch an intruder and Battle finds two bullets, Bundle makes a shocking discovery. Can she finally uncover the mastermind behind it all?"
