In her autobiography, Agatha Christie writes of her friend Katharine Woolley as being a fascinating character who was extremely demanding and rude, yet charming and well-spoken. Katharine was the inspiration for the murder victim Louise Leidner in Murder in Mesopotamia (1936).
A running joke throughout the movie is Katharine and Leonard Woolley's flirtations and active sex life being overheard by others. However, it is believed that the real Woolleys' marriage was never consummated, with Leonard seeking to divorce Katharine in 1929 for her refusal to consummate the union. He later dropped the case. It is speculated that Katharine had androgen insensitivity syndrome, meaning she would have had no uterus.
Agatha reads Lady into Fox by David Garnett, first published in 1922.
"Max Mallowan: Do I know you? Agatha Christie: No, we've never met. Max Mallowan: I'm sure we have. Agatha Christie: Well, sometimes people think they've met me. It's an unfortunate consequence of being a bit famous. Max Mallowan: [impressed] You're famous? Let me guess... You're the wife of a well-known politician? Agatha Christie: [unimpressed] No. I'm not famous by marriage. Max Mallowan: You're a well-known home-economist. Like Mrs. Beeton? Agatha Christie: No, I'm not famous for my practical housekeeping. Max Mallowan: I've got it. You're an actress! [Agatha laughs] Max Mallowan: . Retired of course... Agatha Christie: [offended] My name is Agatha Christie. I'm a writer. Max Mallowan: No, sorry. Never heard of you."
