Lydia (Drame en trois actes)

In Drame en trois actes, the French adaptation of Agatha Christie's Three Act Tragedy for the TV series Les Petits Meurtres d'Agatha Christie, Lydia is a student at Cours Semenoff, an acting school run by Macha Semenoff and a classmate of Alice Avril. She does not have a parallel from the original novel. She is present at the party where Léon Verneuil is poisoned but is not seriously considered as a suspect. Together with fellow students Monique and Jean Ollivier, Lydia comes to believe that Alice is the poisoner and begins to shun her. Lydia is portrayed by Juliette Barry.

We are given very little biographical information about Lydia. Richard Nobel says that she reminds him of himself in his youth, superficial, and spoilt by her father's money. Both Richard and Macha Semenoff think of her as a poor actress.
