Anyone see Poirot last night?

[JR]

Good to see the script writers attention to detail - Hastings: "he's a decent chap, drives an Alvis."

[RichB]

Which Poirot series was that? In the David Suchet ones he drives a Lagonda...

[JR]

Yes, that's the series. Hastings was referring to a man from the BBC.

Ah ha...

Saw a most wonderful AC on a Poirot over the weekend. Not sure of the model but a red pre-war (I guess) convertible. I always smile at his name by the way. Saying "Inspector Leek" doesn't quite have the same ring to it!

In a similar 'Lost In Translation' way - should people think of you as "Toe Knee"?

You've lost me with that one, do the French translate Japp as Leek?

[Elderly]

The word for a leek in French is spelled - poirEAU .
