I've seen oh so many versions of Miss Jane Marple and of all of them, Joan Hickson's version, to me is the most boring and wooden in her performance.
I loved the silliness of the Margaret Rutherford's version, the fun Helen Hayes version and the lively, more humanized version of the late great Geraldine McEwan's version. Julia McKenzie's was ok, but more somewhere in between all the other's versions.
I'm giving these Joan Hickson's versions a solid 3 for only getting to see the wonderful older actors that my hubby and I have seen in many other great shows. Still to me this series characters acting all seems so played straight from the books and doesn't have any emotion and very wooden feel to me. Just my 2 cents worth.
A true Christie fan will watch ALL versions and judge for their-selves!
Enjoyed this docuseries of Vintage Roads: Great and Small!
Peter Davison aka Tristan Farnon and Chris Timothy aka James Herriot are a lot of fun listening in on them bantering like old days.
The cars and roads are amazing to see, at least from this person from across the pond. Would love to "moderately tootle" with these two but watching seemed to be more of a"feral tick!" Over far too quickly, hoping there will be a series 3?
Sadly I have the same "map navigational" tendencies as Chris and I just love the humor of Peter. Highly recommend to anyone who was a ACG&S fans or to old vintage car enthusiasts.
