After the superb rendition of Miss Marples by Joan Hickson this is extremely disappointing. The whole ethos and atmosphere are changed, with overacting and aggressive dialogue replacing the wonderfully studied, self-effacing and low key character created by Joan Hickson. If you saw the originals, avoid this!
This TV film features Geraldine McEuan in the role of Miss Marple and she's really rather good actually.
Less daunting than Joan Hickson and less comedic than Margaret Rutherford. A good Whodunnit, look out for Griff Rhys-Jones in the role of a local Doctor.
Thoroughly enjoyable
