Marple: Why Didn't They Ask Evans? (2009)
Season 4, Episode 4
1/10
Abysmal.
3 July 2009
The cast are quite good, given what they have to work with. The script is utter nonsense from start to finish. Read the book instead.

What are the producers trying to do? How is it they produce something amazing like A Pocketful Of Rye, which is utterly faithful to the book, and then rubbish like this? Don't they have a plan? Are they producers of films based on Agatha Christie's books because they love the books? Clearly not. So I have no idea what they are in it for! And why does Dame Agatha's grandson Mathew Prichard allow it?

The original telefilm from the 80s had a few problems, mainly length...but at any rate at least it is faithful!

I do not talk about Miss Marple being in a non-Miss Marple story. That doesn't bother me in the least. But please don't meddle with the plot!
