Sister Agnieszka is a minor antagonist in Agatha Chrsitie's Poirot. She served as a major antagonist of the episode "Appointment With Death", which is based on Agatha Christie's 1938 Hercule Poirot novel of the same name.
Notably, she is a television-exclusive character, originally created in the television series instead of adapted from the novels.
Sister Agnieszka was a Polish nun who accompanied the tour of Lady Boynton's family to the archaeological excavation at Ain Musa, but in secret she was a member of a slaving crime ring, who tried to have Jinny Boynton kidnapped and sold.
She was portrayed by Beth Goddard.
Biography[]
Trivia[]
- Sister Agnieszka's identity of a Catholic nun being a pretense is foreshadowed at the beginning of her appearance, when she recites Luke 14:23 from the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible, which is the Protestant one. Roman Catholics would never recite a Protestant Bible like the KJV one; they would have settled for the Douay–Rheims Bible instead if that is the case.
- She is one of the few fully original character in the episode, who was created specifically for the TV series, and as such she made no appearance in the original novel or its 1988 film adaptation, either.
- This is Beth Goddard's second role in Agatha Christie's Poirot, albeit being her first villainous one. She previously portrayed Violet Marsh in the episode "The Case of the Missing Will", which was based on a Poirot short story of the same name.
