Agatha and the midnight murders

We’ve switched it off.

Boring. Switched over after 10 minutes.

Just off to bed. I would rather get on with my book, it's interesting.?

Most of it has been shot in the dark which is something I don't like. I have switched it off too. Pity - I was looking forward to it.

I thought it was poor so switched off. Helen baxendale is a good actress too. Very disappointed. The dialogue was anachronistic

I've recorded it as I thought DH might be interested and he had a Zoom meeting.

Perhaps we'll try it but be prepared to turn it off..

Well, I did sort of watch it till the end, half the time on GN so it wasn’t time completely wasted.At one moment I thought it had finished nearly switched off but it hadn’t, there was a twist.
That being said I was disappointed.

i presume it is an agatha christie story.
hercule poirot ones and miss marple sometimes are on radio 4 extra at the moment.
i find them very well done. from a few years ago.
actually it shews up how bbc programmes have declined over the last few decades, in my opinion, esp the entertainment ones.

Wellbeck No, it is written by Tom Dalton.

Is it an Agatha Raisin story ?

No Lucca, it's based on Christie.
Speaking of AR, isn't the actress who plays her (can't remember her name) horribly miscast?

Ashley Jensen is it?

Well I watched it all-while doing several other things! It was boring, unbelievable and the twist was so obvious I saw it coming in the first 5 minutes. Waste of 2 hours which is another point, it could have been done in an hour.

Just watching Agatha Christie, 100 Years of Poirot and Miss Marple.

Really interesting.

Yes me too Calendargirl, it's fascinating.

I'm watching this too.

Gave up after 5 mins. ?

Will definitely watch the 100 years programme.

The 100 years programme is very good.
Now I want to re-read some of her books.

I re-read all the Miss Marple books in lockdown, except The Moving Finger which is on order from library.

Enjoying the Tuesday night Miss Marple on the Drama channel.

Good old Joan Hickson.

Not just the stories, all the lovely 1950’s nostalgia.

I quite enjoyed the 100 years programme too,although it was fairly superficial. I suppose to really do her justice you would need a series! I can't say I like the look of the new Death on the Nile though.
