If you are struggling to find something to watch over the Summer, check out Sky Plus and download some Marple. Agatha Christie’s Marple is just the epitome of stylish television, which is always my kind of television. Just look at Emilia Fox in the image above, or Kelly Brook in the most incredible hat. The characters in Marple are never poor, unless they are in service, and so they are always beautifully dressed, in picture hats, 1950s style dresses and glamorous evening wear where they are also glittering in jewels. She is ably supported by guest stars that include Richard E Grant, Kelly Brook, Polly Walker, Timothy Dalton, Saffron Burrows, Samantha Morton, Stephen Mangan, and Tallulah Riley, a veritable who’s who of British film and television, all relishing their roles and hamming up a hoot.įor someone with a love of vintage fashion, this is a total treat for the eye.

Miss Marple Omnibus Volume 2: A Caribbean Mystery / A Pocket Full of Rye / The Mirror Crackd from Side to Side / They Do It with Mirrors. I must admit to never really being a fan of the Marple series when it was showing during the early part of the Millennium. I am talking about Agatha Christie’s Marple, which you can indulge in at the weekend. Summer television is notoriously a barren place when it comes to watchable, compulsive viewing, full of repeats, so I’ve decided to enjoy some of those repeats currently showing on ITV4.
