    Up to your well-established standard! Yours are perhaps the most interesting discussions of Christie on RUclips (and there are many). I didn’t realize The Clocks was so bad when I first read it as a teenager but I thought it was dire when re-read it a couple of years ago. (I remember liking the surprise of Miss Martindale.) And now you confirm this. Among the five lowest? Wonder what you will make of the denouement of Third Girl….

    One upside of novels that don't work is there's plenty to think/talk about. Coincidence! Also, shout out for the proper captions! Don't know if you used software or typed them yourself, but either way they're much better than the auto-generated ones.

    I only just discovered your channel and am very happy about it. Oh yes, The Clocks! I remember quite liking the murder plot in itself and I also thought the description of the girls' interaction at the secretarial bureau was well done. Edna, btw, in my opinion was precisely the airheaded girl who would walk to the 'murder house' (drum roll!) sort of like today she'd scroll through selfies of people at a public accident or something.
    Apart from all the mind-blowing coincidences you mentioned, however, the main distraction for me was the narrative voice of Colin Lamb in this one. He is supposed to be a young man of the swinging sixties - but he sounds and feels like an old woman and that's just...
