A Christmas Detective [Film and TV Commentary]

Simeon Lee did all kinds of bad things when he was young, cheated, stole, and always loved to play with women... He may have many illegitimate children outside. This is such a person. Now he is older. Although he has money, his body is no longer healthy. He can only sit in a wheelchair all day long. What fun does he have? So he took pleasure in "fixing" his family. It was Christmas soon, and he had the idea to reunite all his sons (including a bad son who had not been home for many years), his daughter-in-law, and a granddaughter he had never met before. It happened that his son in South Africa came to visit him, and he also invited him to stay for the holiday. On the surface, he seems to want to reunite the whole family, but in fact, he is looking for fun. He announced that he wanted to change his will, which made everyone feel uneasy. He also claimed that his life was in danger and invited Poirot Christmas to protect him on the recommendation of local police superintendent Harold Sugden.
