    June Whitfield was so talented, I love the beginning when she is describing the characters and calls the wife a"sexy piece", great download, loved listening to it again, thank you

      Best Miss Marple ever. True to the character in the books. True to an intelligent lady born in Victorian times. Her voice, timing, accent, intonation -- just right.

    Why the preamble? We don’t need to have the plot rolled out in advance. And your opinion is also superfluous.

    • @rbrown6476
      @rbrown6476 7 дней назад

      When I was a child in the fifties and sixties, almost everyone used the expression “dickiebird”.
      I just think it was a sort of nickname that you told to children, when they were learning to speak. Maybe like “pussy cat” or “choo-choo train”. It definitely wasn’t PC! There was no such thing in those days. Casual racism was the norm and very unpleasant too. Agatha Christie used a very pejorative name for one of her novels, ‘And Then There Were None’ (the modern title). You can look that one up, folks, it doesn’t bear writing down. PC is a kinder way to behave towards other people, and makes for a nicer place to live if you aren’t the ‘norm’ in other people’s eyes. Having said all that, Agatha Christie is a constant favourite for me - I have one of her novels on the go almost permanently. 😊
