Agatha Christie has always been one of my favourite authors, and this fabulous mystery really does her magnificent story lines justice. This season of Marple has had two very large mistakes, bringing Miss Marple into stories where she doesn't belong (dispite the fact there are plenty of original stories for them to film) and also changing the murderer in 'The Sittaford Mystery'. This mystery includes a wonderful cast, and, I'm pleased to say Miss Marple doesn't seem to be the main character. James D'Arcy is wonderful, and Frances de la Tour never ceases to amaze. Gripping and enjoyable, though I feel Agatha let us down with the murderer's identity. He was very boring, and not at all someone lively and unexpected. The naughty notes were fun, and Emilia Fox yet again put on a marvellous performance- despite the strange red hair.
Wonderful, I recommend it for everyone who's ever felt alone and for anyone that wants proof as to that fact English village life isn't boring. (only, it's not really proof as the whole story is fictional)
