Miss Marple (played by Geraldine McEwan) is back on PBS with all new shows (Season 3, not that many, but enough).
Last night she was called "nosey' and a "busy body" by other characters and I love how she eavesdrops and just comes up with the who dun it theory and why.
Geraldine McEwan is just so darling and worldly as Miss Marple compared to Joan Hickson (1906-1998) who did a more relaxed and country type Miss Marple.
It does seem amusing that where ever Miss Marple is, murder occurs and she is in the mix yet sees things clearer than the Chief Inspectors assigned to the job.
I love the costume period dramas.
Many special guest stars on this series -- Tom Baker (Dr. Who) is one with a sad and tragic fate along with Dame Eileen Atkins (funny). Francesca Annis (of Tommy and Tuppence fame), Julian Sands (George in "A Room With A View"), and Jane Seymour (Dr. Quinn) are just a few featured players in this Series 3.
Summer has just gotten interesting.
My local movie rental shop closed down. The next nearest one is too far away to travel to. This is going to be great for me!
