Storyline
| Plot Summary |
While on their honeymoon in Egypt, newlyweds Simon Doyle and Linett Ridgeway are constantly harassed by Simon's ex-fiancée Jackie De Bellefort who feels her ex-best friend has stolen the love of her life. A holidaying Hercule Poirot counsels Jackie to put an end to her antics, fearing that all of this can only end in tragedy. When one of the passengers is killed while on a cruise down the Nile, Poirot must sift through an odd assortment of passengers, who all may have something to hide. There is Linett's financial advisor from the US, her French maid who clearly has something to hide, the Austrian doctor who keeps mostly to himself and the left leaning philosopher who despises the rich.

Did You Know?
| Trivia | In the scene at Denderah where Poirot and the others are entering the temple and the custodian is looking over the parapet, on the stones is carved a graffiti by Charles Irby and James Mangles, two Royal navy captains who were traveling in Egypt after the Napoleonic War. They helped Giovanni Battista Belzoni clear the entrance to the temple of Abu Simbel in 1817. This is shown in Egypt (2005). See more » |
| Goofs | When the head of a stone statue falls off the side of the temple and almost kills Linnet, it bounces when it hits the ground. There's no way something made of solid stone would bounce. It should either stay completely still or crumble when it hits the ground, but the visible bounce reveals that it's not made of stone but of something much lighter, like foam. See more » |
