In Agatha Christie's Poirot series, Miss Lemon leaves Poirot's employment to work as a secretary at a government agency. Her departure is briefly mentioned in the novels and series, but the specific reason for her leaving is not extensively explored.

In Agatha Christie's Poirot series, the term "moneme" is used to refer to a single unit of meaning, akin to a word or a concept that conveys a specific idea. Poirot often employs this term to emphasize the importance of details in unraveling complex cases, highlighting how each piece of information contributes to the overall understanding of a situation. It reflects his meticulous approach to detective work, where every small element plays a crucial role in solving the mystery.
Not really. All books follow on from one another, Hercule Poirot's follow on from one another, etc. They may have certain references to other books in, but generally no. The only book that might be considered to have a sequel is the first Hercule Poirot, 'The Mysterious Affair At Styles' The last book in the Hercule Poirot series 'Curtains: Poirot's Last Case' is also set at Styles, so I recommend that you read 'Mysterious Affair...' before you read '...Poirot's Last Case'
In the TV series "Agatha Christie's Poirot," the iconic detective Hercule Poirot, played by David Suchet, is often seen smoking cigars, specifically the brand "Cohiba." These premium Cuban cigars reflect his refined taste and add to his distinctive character. Poirot's smoking habit serves as a visual and thematic element, emphasizing his meticulous nature and love for the finer things in life.
Pretty soon they will run out of Poirot novels and short stories to adapt. David Suchet has commented that he expects that they will have made adaptations of all Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot stories by 2012. This doesn't necessarily spell the end, however. For example, the series Midsomer Murders has continued way beyond adaptations of the original books written by Caroline Graham. The past few series have been written by a variety of screen writers and feature the credit "based upon characters created by Caroline Graham". There is no reason that they couldn't do the same with the Poirot series.
