Picture caption: GERALDINE McEWAN, as Agatha Christie’s famous spinster sleuth Miss Marple, is once again joined by a glittering cast in the latest MARPLE film for ITV1.
When Miss Marple stays in London’s fashionable Bertram’s Hotel she enjoys the traditional décor, the impeccable service – and the unmistakable atmosphere of danger behind the highly polished veneer. Many of her fellow guests are gathered for the will reading of Sir Richard Blake, the multi millionaire who disappeared seven years previously. His daughter Elvira (BEECHAM) and her estranged mother, the famous adventurer Bess Sedgwick (WALKER), are among them. Tensions grow as jewel thieves, art dealers, soul singers and Nazi hunters are revealed to be among the guests. As the guests mingle in the hotel’s opulent rooms, many questions are left unanswered. Why will Elvira and Bess go to such lengths for family friend Brigit (NIGHY) and hotel doorman Mickey Gorman (REGAN)? What do the bumbling Canon Pennyfather (KAY), German milliner Mutti (HEAP) and the handsome enigma Malinowski (STOPPARD) have in common?
