Miss Marple (TV series) Inspector Craddock presents another inconsistency in the series. The character is clearly unknown to Miss Marple in "A Murder is Announced" but in his second appearance in "The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side", Craddock is Miss Marple's nephew. All of the episodes take place in the 1950's. "The Murder at the Vicarage" is set in 1954, according to a sign about money being raised for the church fund. This takes place after the events of "The Body in the Library", which Miss Marple relates briefly when describing how she first came across Inspector Slack. "Nemesis" is set in 1955
Agatha Christie's Marple is aired in the United States on PBS on "Mystery!", where it is presented as "Agatha Christie's "Miss Marple."" The series is broadcast to the whole of Canada on CBC and in French on Radio-Canada. In Australia, "Agatha Christie's Marple" airs on ABC1. "Marple" is also being broadcast on ATV World in Hong Kong, on "EBS" and MegaTV in South Korea and on CCTV-8 in China. China, however, refused to show "The Body in the Library" and "Murder Is Easy," due to the involvement of a lesbian and an incestuous relationship respectively. "Why Didn't They Ask Evans?" was extensively edited,
