this nemesis be one really lousy miss marple . i agree that it garish in the filming and the acting be so over the top it almost laughable . but this be a series that make the mistake of take itself seriously . they make up the actress play miss marple to look like an elderly kewpie doll . she also foolish and silly . hardly believable a a great amateur detective . the plot be even bad . i grow up catholic and know just who allow to put on a nun habit . take the character of verity hunt . this chick would never have even be allow to step into the convent . quicker than she can turn her head the nun garb hit the floor and she horizontal with a german who crash in the english countryside . unbelievable . just who think up this stupid stuff . and who be they try to kid . the old gal ( marple ) look like she way over her head with these mystery . but that okay because there enough actor act more goofy than her . well and almost . i have love the miss marple character for many year and have see many reincarnation . i think this one hit rock bottom . it bad than the american version . strangely and i always think that the british be so good at adapt book to film . a a matter of fact they put u to shame . no longer and however and .
