So, 'Why Didn't They Ask Evans?' is an interesting little TV movie from 1980, set against the backdrop of the 1930s. The whole vibe of the film pulls you into this cozy yet eerie country house setting, which really serves the mystery well. You've got Bobby Jones and Lady Frankie Derwent, two amateur detectives, who are honestly quite charming in their pursuit of the truth. The pacing keeps you engaged, with just enough twists to leave you guessing. What’s intriguing is how the dying man's last words act as a springboard for their investigation, blending suspense with a touch of humor. The performances feel genuine, and there's this lovely old-school feel to it that adds to the overall atmosphere. Definitely a unique piece worth keeping an eye on.
