Summary |
Joan Hickson is the perfect little old spinster lady whose meekness and fondness for knitting belie a needle-sharp brain and a genius for unravelling crime. The world of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple is a bygone rural England of vicars and retired colonels, live-in servants, close-knit village communities and murder! Oozing period atmosphere, star-studded casts and swimming with red herrings, the second collection features three further crime stores from the original BBC series, filmed entirely on location, are included in this three disc collector's set, presented in their original format and now digitally restored from the original negatives. |
