Philomel Cottage - Agatha Christie - Orson Welles - Geraldine Fitzgerald
Музыка
Alix Martin is a woman in her mid-thirties who has worked as a shorthand typist for fifteen years. For most of that time she has had an understanding with a fellow clerk by the name of Dick Windyford; but, as both are short of funds and, at various times, had family dependants, romance and marriage have been out of the question and never spoken of.
One of the premier drama programs of the Golden Age of Radio, was subtitled "radio's outstanding theater of thrills" and focused on suspense thriller-type scripts, usually featuring leading Hollywood actors of the era.
Suspense went through several major phases, characterized by different hosts, sponsors, and director/producers. Formula plot devices were followed for all but a handful of episodes: the protagonist was usually a normal person suddenly dropped into a threatening or bizarre situation; solutions were "withheld until the last possible second"; and evildoers were usually punished in the end.

Orson didn't think so.
I love Agatha Cbristie. Her novels are like puzzles because all the clues are there for the reader to solve. 'And then there were none' and 'Five little pigs ' are two of my faves. 🕵🕵🕵

IKR?! In February 1942, Congress implemented a law instating a national daylight saving time to help conserve fuel and "promote national security and defense," which is why it was nicknamed "war time." The time zones were even known as that: Eastern War Time, Pacific War Time, etc. But when the war ended in 1945, the law was once again repealed so individual states could establish their own standard time. www.defense.gov/Explore/Features/story/Article/1779177/daylight-saving-time-once-known-as-war-time/

Daylight savings time, though much older as an idea, was first instituted narionally in February of 1941 as a way to save fuel for the war effort. It was called "war time"....the things you learn consuming old entertainment!
Did she really poison him?

Probably not, but maybe it's a case of unreliable narrator? Or maybe even some form of mental issue that made her unable to remember her past?
