Spider's Web 1982 Based on the play of the same name by Agatha Christie, direction by Basil Coleman.
Penelope Keith is Clarissa Hailsham-Brown, her husband is just a few hours away from bringing home an important political guest when she finds a dead body in the drawing room. She connives a plan to deal with the police involving her other house guests involving a game of bridge. The police arrive and more back story is revealed.
A rather jovial BBC production with little alteration of the original play, according to the Wikipedia. No screenwriter is credited. I found it enjoyable. You can see it on YouTube.
