Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA rather strong hint when this plot was taking place is shown around 34 minutes, where Maigret has a newspaper "Le Monde" placed on top of what looks like a calendar. You can only see a mirror image of writing through the paper that is turned and it states Octobre 1955.
- GoofsCarl and Else Anderson are arrested after arriving by train in Paris at the Gare D'Orsay. The Gare D'Orsay was closed in 1939. However, the story was published in 1931. Having a Jewish jeweller operating in an established Jewish quarter of Antwerp, including Hasidic elements of its population, would simply not have been possible in the early post-war era. Some of the clothing styles and the motor vehicles may be post-war, in which case the depiction of period is ambiguous.

Featured review
The best so far
I'll be honest, the first two offerings I wasn't exactly full of praise for, but this third offering has very much changed my opinion. Everything feels settled, solid and somehow familiar. I now feel used to the concept of Rowan Atkinson as Maigret, and I feel he himself is now more comfortable in the role. Night at the Crossroads isn't my favourite story, but as a production it came to life, the performances were first rate, Thomas Wlaschiha stole the show for me, as he so often does, but he was fantastic, so diverse an actor. Lucy Cohu I still think is a joy as Maigret's wife. The only criticism I had was the performance of Kevin McNally, who's Grandjean was a little too much, somehow it seemed like he over-relished his role of villain, and was a little hammy.
Great production values, this episode I feel has turned the series around, I now cannot wait for the next episode. A very solid 8/10
