Talk:Nemesis (Christie novel)

message: What could possibly be the point of listing the entire cast of the Hickson adaptation, especially given that half of them seem to have played "Member of Coach Party"?  I'm going to remove the cast list.  Binabik80 01:16, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Nem7484.jpg

message: The plot summary is very confusing.  It doesn't make clear that Michael has been imprisoned for murder; nor who the victim of that murder is.  (I assume, reading between the lines, that it's Nora Broad?)  Moreover, Joanna Crawford and Emlyn Price are mentioned without any prior introduction.  --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 07:56, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Seems very straightforward to me. Crawford and Price are mentioned as a distraction while talking with the three sisters, because Miss Marple knows those two did not set the boulder rolling to Miss Temple, eventually murdering her. Miss Marple needs one of the sisters to confess, before the same sister kills Miss Marple, as Clotilde tries twice. Verity Hunt is murdered, as is Nora Broad, and that is why Michael is in jail (gaol). If you have the book at hand, the draft of a Character List I just put up could use some improvements. I do not like to add to the article every specific without the book at hand. --Prairieplant (talk) 17:21, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I added some sentences and descriptions of characters with the book in hand. Hope that you can follow the story now. There is a character list now, for double checking. The summary is longer; maybe another editor can do a better job.  --Prairieplant (talk) 00:33, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Plot summary is confusing 

message: The article says there are 14 others in the tour besides Miss Marple (and, of course, the tour guide, Mrs. Sandbourne.) I'm reading the book now and (so far) Agatha hasn't stated that number. But the passenger list that Miss Marple studies, lists 15:
* 1. Mrs. Ridley-Porter
* 2. Miss Joanna Crawford
* 3 & 4. Colonel and Mrs. Walker
* 5 & 6. Mr. and Mrs. L. T. Butler
* 7. Miss Elizabeth Temple
* 8. Professor Wanstead
* 9. Mr. Richard Jameson
* 10. Miss Lumley
* 11. Miss Bentham
* 12. Mr. Casper
* 13. Miss Cooke
* 14. Miss Barrow
* 15. Mr. Emlyn Price
(This list is copied as it is in the book, with my numbers added.)
I suggest that the article should be revised to change fourteen to fifteen (in 3 places), or to not state the number at all.
