Philippe Berg

In Rendez-vous avec la mort, the French adaptation of Agatha Christie's Appointment with Death for the TV series Les Petits Meurtres d'Agatha Christie, Philippe Berg is the parallel of Lennox Boynton in the original novel. Philippe is portrayed by Guillaume Bouchède.

Philippe is the eldest of the Berg children and is married to Caroline who is the Nadine Boynton parallel. The adaptation is not explicit on whether the Berg children are Clémence Berg's biological children, step-children or adopted although they are likely to be her own offspring. There is a scene where Clémence rebukes Philippe for being weak-willed like his uncle Ernest Tricard, Clémence's younger brother whom she also despised. Clémence says that none of her traits are in Philippe. These statements suggest that Philippe is Clémence biological son.

Unlike the original, there is no plot element of Caroline wanting to leave Philippe, nor is there a Jefferson Cope parallel to give him some competition. Philippe therefore never comes round to having to stand up to his mother or telling her that he is moving out.
