Agatha Christie's Marple: Ordeal by Innocence (2007 Moira Armstrong)

Not originally a Marple story, published in 1958.

Geraldine McEwan, Juliet Stevenson, Denis Lawson, Alison Steadman, Julian Rhind-Tutt, Richard Armitage, Stephanie Leonidas, Lisa Stansfield, Burn Gorman, Jane Seymour, Tom Riley, Reece Shearsmith, Bryan Dick, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Pippa Heywood.

Some good jokes in Stewart Harcourt's adaptation, e.g. Shearsmith to small boy 'Did you bludgeon Mrs Argyle to death?'



Rhind-Tutt good as diffident scientist, though they might have found him some romantic action somewhere. It was one of the films handsomely photographed by Cinders Forshaw.
