Taken at the Flood is the fourth episode of series ten of Agatha Christie's Poirot, first broadcast on 2 April 2006. The feature-length episode was based on the Agatha Christie novel of the same name. It was directed by Andy Wilson, and the script was written by Guy Andrews.
The young Rosaleen Cloade and her brother David are the only survivors of a gas explosion. The naive widow now inherits all of her late husband's fortune, to the detriment of his relatives. They turn to Poirot and ask him to convict the girl of bigamy by finding her first husband, Robert Underhay, who went missing in the African djungle.

The adaptation is fairly faithful to the original, albeit omitting its post-WWII setting (like most ITV adaptations, the episode is set in the 1930s), changing the backstories of some characters, magnifying the extent of the murderer's crimes and adding some criminal side-plots for characters who were innocent in the original novel.
The film adaptation deviates from the source material in these respects:
•1930s aesthetics
•Folk song "Your Baby Has Gone Down the Plughole" – first mentioned by Rosaleen during the inquest as a song often hummed by Robert Underhay, then sung by David Hunter in his last scene
•Poirot's quirks
•Demanding clarification of English idioms – to Spence: "When Monsieur Hunter professes himself to have no position, does that mean he considers himself to be a gentleman of leisure?"
•Dorchester on Thames
•The George Hotel – as the Stag inn
•Dorchester Abbey, High Street – the funeral scene
•Rotten Row – flashback sequence (in red) showing Aunt Kathie
•Crescent Grove, London - explosion at Gordon Cloade's house
•Chilworth Manor, Chilworth, Guildford, Surrey – as the White House
