Victor Dubois

In Meurtres en solde , the French adaptation of Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot's Christmas for Season 2 of the TV series Les Petits Meurtres d'Agatha Christie, Victor Dubois is a cognac salesman. While driving in the north of France, he picks up two hitch-hikers but some time during the journey, he lost control of the car which went off the road and plunged down a cliff. He and one of the two hitch-hikers are killed. This incident parallels that of the car accident experienced by Pilar Estravados in Spain in the original novel. The actor who portrayed Dubois is not credited.

The hitch-hiker who died was Francesca Rochetti, the Pilar parallel. According to Viviane Vasseur, the Conchita Lopez parallel, the two girls had been walking for hours when Dubois stopped to pick them up. He plied them with cognac (as forensic analysis of Francesca revealed). Viviane thought she must have fallen asleep. When she woke up, she heard Francesca calling for help--Dubois was probably trying to molest Francesca. He realised too late that the car was approaching a ravine and could not swerve in time.
