I'm glad they stayed fairly close to the original book, they only tinkered a little bit. Agatha Christies Miss Marple: A Murder Is Announced (TV) is a film directed by David Giles with Joan Hickson, Ursula Howells, Rene Asherson, Samantha Bond. As a story I think it's one of Christie's finest, it's such a clever murder. I think it was so well acted that each murder made a difference, they mattered, I think that was down to the acting, and the effects on the other actors, very well done. Naturally, a murderer would not place an ad in the paper announcing their murder, right However dangerous as it might be, it sparks the interest of the people in town. Someone must be putting an invitation for a game in the paper. The ending is absolutely brilliant, it's truly powerful and sad, the episode manages to hold your attention throughout. A murder is announced in the newspaper Gazette in the dizzy town of Chipping Cleghorn. Geraldine bounced of Alexander Armstrong so well too, they had some great scenes together. Some truly fine performances, notably Zoe Wannamaker, Elaine Paige and Frances Barber, but I think Geraldine's performance is simply brilliant, she's sparky, nosey and somehow worldly, but she showed a different side to her character, it was a heartbreaking scene when she discovered Amy's body. I like the camera work too, it's shot in a very interesting way, it looks so different to the three previous stories.

As always the costumes, hair, styles etc work on all levels, it looks wonderfully stylish. The screenplay works particularly well, it moves along nicely.

This version competes very favourably against the earlier BBC version.
