Anecdotes
The spy novel referenced is "N or M?" which was published in 1941. After publication, she was investigated by MI5 because the character Major Bletchley shared a name with the code-breaking center Bletchley Park. When asked about the name, she replied "Bletchley? My dear, I was stuck there on my way by train from Oxford to London and took revenge by giving the name to one of my least lovable characters."

Gaffes
Grace says Agatha is "richer than the queen", but it is 1940 and King George VI is the monarch. That does not make it a goof. There was also a queen at the time: Queen Elizabeth.

Citations
Sir Malcolm Campbell: If she's Agatha Christie, I'm the Emperor of Japan.

This is an Agatha Christie story?

This is an Agatha Christie story. Must be one of her less favourite ones. It's a collection of highly unlikely characters brought together in a contrived situation with a rather silly storyline. Overall there was little in the way of real suspense, just lots of dead bodies (we have all seen those). The characters were shallow and of little interest although the performances of some actors were fair enough; the rest of the day players were forgettable.
