Adele Rodier

In Ding Dingue Dong, the French adaptation of Evil Under the Sun, Adèle Rodier is the teenage daughter of Doctor Louis Rodier and the stepdaughter of Rodier's wife Clarisse and she lives with her parents at the "Clinique des Lilas". Adele is the parallel of Linda Marshall from the original novel. Like Linda, she is about fifteen and dislikes her stepmother. However, there is no witchcraft subplot. Adele does not take any active steps which could be construed as leading to the death of Clarisse. Nor is Adele used by Marie Steiner, the Christine Redfern parallel to establish an alibi. Adele is befriended by Alice Avril who is really the parallel of Rosamund Darnley. Towards the end of the episode, Adele does attempt to commit suicide by taking an overdose of sleeping tablets. However the motive is different. Here she believed her father had killed Clarisse and she wanted to kill herself, and leave a note confessing to the murder, in order to exonerate him.

Adèle is portrayed by Maira Schmitt.
