Page "Agatha Christie" Paragraph 39

Christie has also been portrayed fictionally.

Some of these have explored and offered accounts of Christie's disappearance in 1926, including the 1979 film Agatha ( with Vanessa Redgrave, where she sneaks away to plan revenge against her husband ) and the Doctor Who episode " The Unicorn and the Wasp " ( with Fenella Woolgar, her disappearance being the result of her suffering a temporary breakdown due to a brief psychic link being formed between her and an alien ).

Others, such as 1980 Hungarian film, Kojak Budapesten ( not to be confused with the 1986 comedy by the same name ) create their own scenarios involving Christie's criminal skill.

In the 1986 TV play, Murder by the Book, Christie herself ( Dame Peggy Ashcroft ) murdered one of her fictional-turned-real characters, Poirot.

The heroine of Liar-Soft's 2008 visual novel Shikkoku no Sharnoth: What a Beautiful Tomorrow, Mary Clarissa Christie, is based on the real-life Christie.

Christie features as a character in Gaylord Larsen's Dorothy and Agatha and The London Blitz Murders ' by Max Allan Collins.
