4.50 From Paddington, When Miss Marple’s visiting friend sees a woman being strangled on a passing train, they immediately report it to the police. Inspector Slack sees Miss Marple as a bit of a busy body and drops the investigation after only a few days. Miss Marple however determines that there is only one spot along the line where a body could have been dumped and it happens to be very near the Crackenthorpe estate. She asks a professional housekeeper, Lucy Eyelesbarrow, to go there undercover as a domestic. She soon finds the dead woman’s body at which time the police take on a renewed interest but it is left to Miss Marple to solve the mystery

An authentic and high quality adaptation.

4.50 From Paddington, Whilst travelling by train to visit her friend Jane Marple, Elspeth McGillicuddy wakes from her slumber and witnesses a man strangling a woman on a passing train. With no other witnesses and no trace of a body the Police don’t believe her story, so Miss Marple engages Lucy Eyelesbarrow to help uncover the mystery.

It’s a very faithful, beautifully made version, production values are incredibly high. The music is lovely and melodic, it’s never invasive, it helps generate atmosphere.

Some totally iconic scenes too, the whole sequence of Lucy discovering the body is one of the most memorable bits of TV from my childhood. It’s beautifully filmed and the music is superb, it adds to the tension. The set and props are wonderful.

Beautifully acted, some wonderful performances, my favourite being Joanna David’s, she is superb as Emma, making her down trodden and meek, but wonderfully believable. Maurice Denham is wonderful as always, Jean Boht’s cameo as Madame Jolie. Jill Meager puts in a very good showing, but…….

One gripe I have with Lucy Eyelesbarrow, she has men falling at her feet, desperately in love with her, I’m so sorry to say it but with Jill Meager, I just don’t see it. With Amanda Holden’s character I get it. (Is that Bertram’s Hotel I spy for their first meeting?)

The ending is well staged. It seemed at the time like she was always using Somerset House.

It’s an excellent production, a little doddery in parts, but very faithful to the book. Hickson is excellent as always but somewhat takes a back seat in this one, she’s very much an observer.

After waiting 14 days I decided to enquire by email when my DVD would arrive

After waiting 14 days I decided to enquire by email when my DVD would arrive. I received an email back stating I had purchased it via download and had been sent an and had been sent a link, so I checked my emails lo and behold there was one there with a link in it but the link didn’t work, even though the invoice states when I made payment and ordered the movie it was fora DVD. So here we are still waiting for my DVD. I have received no communication back since the inquiry other than I made the mistake. Then I received an email to give a review while I can tell you what it’s not Sterling. I do not recommend buying any movie from this online store.

A good DVD but episodes out of order.

A good DVD, but the episodes were misnumbered and out of order. Not a problem once the viewer realises and watches episodes in correct order.
