Starring: David Suchet, Hugh Fraser, Philip Jackson, Pauline Moran
Factual error: Poirot gets on the train to London. The engine has an SNCF plaque on it. The video then cuts to the 1936 cycle race. The BCNF was not formed until 1938.
Factual error: The prologue shows the dubbing of a newsreel by a narrator. Ten years later it's 1936. But in 1926 Hollywood was still experimenting with sound film, and a UK news reel would've been silent. (It was 1929 before any sound films were made in Europe).
Hercule Poirot: A doctor who lacks doubt is not a doctor. He's an executioner. (00:14:40)
The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim - S2-E5
Trivia: David Suchet performed all the various conjuring tricks Poirot is trying to pull off. The illusionist in the theater show at the beginning is the late Patrick Page, real life stage magician and coach/consultant for the episode.
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd - S7-E1
Question: The doctor (James) put on a Dictaphone to make the suggestion that Roger Ackroyd was alive at 21:30 hrs. But how could he know that someone (Paton) would pass the door of Ackroyd's study at precisely that moment?
