Agatha Christie’s Marple

Thursday, 1 January 2009, 9:00PM - 11:00PM on ITV1

Miss Marple (Geraldine McEwan) is faced with her greatest challenge yet when she receives instructions from an old friend, the recently deceased Mr Rafiel, to investigate a ‘possible crime’. But there’s a catch - she has not been told what the crime is. Instead, she is booked onto a mystery coach tour to gather clues.

Miss Marple takes her nephew Raymond West (Richard E Grant) to accompany her on the tour as Mr Rafiel warns that danger may threaten. It begins to dawn on them both that all the passengers have been placed there for a reason, as their lives interconnect in various ways. Even more significantly, everyone is connected to a young girl, Verity Hunt, who went missing during the war.

Geraldine McEwan returns in two of her final outings as Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple.

In Nemesis, the famous spinster sleuth faces her greatest challenge when she receives instructions from the late Mr Rafiel to investigate a ‘possible crime’. She’s not told what the crime is, but is instead booked on a mystery coach tour to gather clues.

Accompanied by her nephew Raymond West (Richard E Grant), Miss Marple soon realises that everyone on the trip is there for a reason, and is somehow connected to a young girl who went missing during the war. With the help of detective Colin Hards (Lee Ingleby), the pair piece together the secrets of the past to fulfil a promise to a dear friend. Johnny Briggs, Amanda Burton, Anne Reid, Ronni Ancona, George Cole, Will Mellor, Ruth Wilson, and Emily Woof also star.
