Sunday Mystery: Agatha Christie’s Murder is Easy – Miss Marple…

I keep expecting to get tired of the new Miss Marple every time the role is recast. They keep surprising me and keeping me entertained though and Agatha Christie is of course timeless… I am enjoying Julia McKenzie’s interpretation of the role, after growing up on Joan Hickson. I enjoyed Geraldine McEwan as well…For the purists I suspect Miss Marple will always be Margaret Rutherford….Does anyone else remember the 80s TV version of this novel with Bill Bixby and LesleyAnn Warren?
