What I like about the current Marple series (now shown on PBS - this mystery was shown in America last night)...
Not only have most of the actors in these series of Christie mysteries had experience in rep theater in Britain, but the repeat use of some of the actors in the Poirot and Marple have become their own "Christie" rep group! I like that.
I have no criticism of using the different actors in the role of Jane Marple. These accomplished actors are giving their interpretations to what's become a mythic role in the Christie oeuvre. The each bring their theater background to the role and that's great!
