Agatha Christie's books are the latest to get the woke control.
Naughty words to be removed and changed.
Edit. Apologies if this subject ventures too far towards the "p" word,if so,please delete or ask me to and I will obey.👍

www.express.co.uk/entertainment/books/1751060/Agatha-Christie-Poirot-Miss-Marple-rewritten-sensitivity-readers"Sensitivity readers". Good grief. All very 1984. “Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” Just put a note in the forward (and back cover) warning readers that some of the language may cause offence. End of.

Exactly, just like they do with classic soaps, Minder, many police dramas like the Bill and films, it's not rocket science..a message before each. Changing historical events to suit todays audience is sort of a form of eraticating it, how do young people get to know about history.

Afraid it's part of the attack on free speech.
