Captain Rogers (Appointment with Death)

Captain Rogers is a non-canonical character created for the 1988 film adaption of Appointment with Death. He is the adjutant of Colonel Carbury and assisted him and Poirot in the investigation into the death of Mrs Boynton. Captain Rogers is portrayed by Douglas Sheldon.

Rogers undertook the (off camera) questioning of the Arab men at the Qumran archaeological dig. Among his findings, it would appear the one of the Arab boys Hassan had seen something suspicious. Hassan was, however, killed before he could reveal what he had seen to Poirot. Later Poirot asked Rogers to uncover some background on Lady Westholme. Rogers assured him that he could do that easily. He had been in the United States and had "tip top" connections. Through these connections, he discovered that Lady Westhome had once served a jail sentence in the prison where Mrs Boynton was a wardress.
