redfiona99It's no secret that I do not like the vast majority of the ITV Miss Marples (to the point that I should probably apologise to my twitter peeps for complaining about them at least once a week). Because they keep changing the story, and I know most of Agatha Christie's work barely hangs together, but it does and there is normally a reason for things and changing everything (including the murderer, the motive, the settings, the characters and/or all of the above) means they tend not to work at all.
Oddly enough, the ones where they mess with the original story the least are the ones that work the best. I'm watching their take on The Mirror Crack'd From Side To Side right now, and in it they barely change anything, and it's the best of the lot.
And Nigel Harman's version of Jason Rudd is probably my favourite take on the character out of all the different versions.
