Editorial Review:
Joan Hickson stars as Agatha Christie's most beloved character, the prim and proper Miss Marple, in this classic whodunit. Why is Miss Marple's friend, Carrie-Louise Serrocold, being systematically poisoned? Miss Marple's trip to Stonygates, the rambling country mansion owned by Carrie-Louise and her third husband, Lewis, might shed some light on the mystery. Then again, it might add more intrigue to an already bizarre scenario involving an extended family and a reformatory for young criminals where violence seems to lurk just below the surface. When shots are fired in a darkened room and the victim turns up elsewhere, Miss Marple deduces the identity of the killer, but not how the murder was committed until she discovers the secret hobby of a trusted cohort.

Lydia from A&E's Pride & Prejudice is one of the suspects and the tremendous Joss Ackland (the South African Drug Lord from Lethal Weapon) is another prominent character. All in all one of the best in this series. If you like ... Read More

The answer to the riddle is in the tittle. Once again Aunt Jane has to sort things out when a friend Ruth asks her to look in on her sister, Carrie Louise. You anticipate that Carrie has had it. And you meet many unbalanced and seedy characters. While you are watching you can miss the whole thing as they do it with mirrors. Just side notes that the still pictures from this movie are on the back of the video sheath of "Murder at the Vicarage" Well paced and the perfect English actors to match ... Read More
