Marple Actors

Here's a section to discuss Marple actors... Personally, I like Geraldine McEwan the most. Although I prefer Angela Lansbury as an actor in general, I don't really think she suits the part of Miss Marple as well as McEwan. Though I must say, I loved Lansbury in Death on the Nile!

I think Joan Hickson was the best Miss Marple. I just received a cd of the Tuesday Club Murders and was so happy she was the one reading it. She has such a melodious voice. Just love her.

Which version of Pale Horse? I would love to see the 1st, I have both versions of Evil Under The Sun and the Radio version on Tape

In answer to your question about email If you are over 18 Yes

Oh cool, I have recorded The Pale Horse, but I am reading the book now before I watch the movie. I also have recorded the Triangle at Rhodes and Evil Under the Sun.

Would you be interested in corresponding via email? I have email people all over the world; would you like to join?

Pipe dreams often come true Tommy so I hope you get to visit the other side of the world, albeit not necessarily as soon as you would have wished.

HEY DOES SOMEONE KNOW ABOUT AN AC movie  that was about a painting about a garden i think and there were some old people in the movie. Can someone tell me the name?????? PLEASE

Tommy_A_Jones 01 Nov 11 at 2:46 p.m. GMT

I am afraid for the forseeable future it is only a Pipe Dream but thankyou for the reccommendation.

Tommy - I can highly recommend a trip to Oz. My twin brother lives in Auckland (New Zealand) and when I visit we meet up in Sydney and spend a week touring the sights (The Opera House & the Harbour Bridge are simply a-mazing !) then fly onto NZ for some more time together. Sydney is a vibrant and exciting city and I could very easily live there. Hope you get to visit for yourself. It's a vast country and so much to see but I've only had the good fortunate to see Sydney. I can also recommend New Zealand - I have seen most of both the North & South islands and it is a truly beautiful country. The Kiwis (and the Wallabies) are so welcoming. Do go !!

I would love to go to Australia, It seems such a Great Place, I have heard there are some places which are like 200 years ago, I have seen Episodes of Grand Designs Australia

Tommy - I'm from Sydney. I went to England about a month ago! I love England :D it's so cool there

djela, we think alike!!

Tommy_A_Jones 30 Oct 11 at 2:52 p.m. GMT

England, One of the Shires, You?

McEwan is my favorite. McKenzie is good but I like Geraldine McEwan in the part better. In my mind she fits the part better.

de_misteri 30 Oct 11 at 1:32 a.m. GMT

Ok :) So, where are you from?

Tommy_A_Jones 28 Oct 11 at 1:45 p.m. GMT

Pauline Collins plays the Female Sluth in the Updated version of Sparkling Cyanide Oliver Ford Davies plays her Husband and is supposed to be Race but they Changed the name, Pauline Collins was also in Upstairs Downstairs and the First series of Liver Birds She would make an nexcellent older Tuppence if the other books were done and Francessca Annis didn't want to do it. Maggie Smith Turned down the role of Miss Marple either by choice or because of Harry Potter.

de_misteri 28 Oct 11 at 3:06 a.m. GMT

Awesome :D Now I want a dictaphone!!!

Joan Hickson is pretty good; but I still like Julia McKenzie and Geraldine McEwan the best. I don't really like Margaret Rutherford - she just really doesn't suit the part! Who is Pauline Collins? I really think Maggie Smith should play Marple (she is old enough now and I think she suits it very well.)

Anita_Clue 27 Oct 11 at 5:02 p.m. GMT

Joan Hickson is my favorite, but Julia McKenzie is catching up -- especially after watching "The Pale Horse".  Pauline Collins was in that episode and she ranks as one of my favorite actresses.
