Did you know
ā¢ Amy Folliat (Constance Cummings) quotes sixteenth century poet Edmund Spenser's work "The Faerie Queene": "Sleep after toil, port after stormy seas,/ Ease after war, death after life, doth greatly please." This verse is inscribed on Dame Agatha Christie's tombstone.
ā¢ Siv Borg was dubbed.
ā¢ There is a reference to another Dame Agatha Christie Poirot case: Detective Inspector Bland (Kenneth Cranham) tells Poirot he "was present when you solved the ABC Murders" fifteen years earlier.
User reviews
The best of the Poirot made for TV movies, but not as good as Death On the Nile and Evil Under The Sun
A Murder game gets real
Not brilliant but OK
