Marple: By the Pricking of My Thumbs (2006)
Season 2, Episode 3
7/10
Not great, but an enjoyable mystery
2 April 2007
Though Miss Marple wasn't in the original novel, I enjoyed this mystery all the same. While I would've preferred not to have seen Miss Marple (especially considering what a bad entry into the episode she has) I thought Tuppence (played to absolute perfection by Great Schacchi) took my mind of her.

I hope that more Tommy and Tuppence episodes are planned (without Miss Marple, please!) and that Miss Marple will just stick to her own mysteries, as we know that you have plenty of novels left to adapt.

(PLEASE don't change any Poirots like this because it would be a disaster!)

I recommend this for anyone who feels they can sit through Miss Marple being awfully similar to 'Midsomer Murders'
