But Joan Hickson's terrific run as Marple ended in 1992. As a lifelong admirer of Christie's works, it gives me no pleasure to report that the latest attempt to adapt the Queen of Crime's work is a dismal failure: There's no regard for Christie's prose, no idea who the series' audience is meant to be, and no goal except to further increase Netflix's intellectual property resources.
