@soldadura1000

@MsSarjen NO KIDDING! I mentioned that these new shows ALWAYS have to have a gay character or change a plot line which WASN'T WHAT THE AUTHOR STATED. DID CHRISTIE WRITE THAT MISS MARPLE HAD AN AFFAIR WITH A MARRIED MAN? The answer is NO! The MURDERER in 'Body in the Library' was the SON-IN-LAW - NOT the daughter in law becoming a lesbian!!! GET OFF MY BACK!

I'm NOT homophobic. I'm just irritated that the new versions take far too much license with the original plot lines. Good grief people!!!

[JediMasterCheryl]

I rarely comment back on this but YOU MISSED MY POINT AS MOST OF YOU DO! It's the changing of the damn PLOT to accommodate for homosexuals or the implementation of 'added material' like Miss Marple having an affair with a married man that I find distasteful and egregious!

I HAVE A GAY SON WHOM I LOVE VERY MUCH & EVEN HE DOESN'T LIKE THESE CHANGES! So get off your high-horse. I made a point about changing what to me is CLASSIC literature. Would you enjoy The Iliad being based in Rome or Egypt?

the best of miss marple =)

My favourite Miss Marple story and this version like the others in the Joan Hickson series is so much better than the more recent one, Geraldine McEwan and Julia McKenzie are good but can't compare with Joan Hickson, the later series may look more sumptuous but they're much less true to the books and the acting generally less good.

[Blisterdude123]

I always preferred the Joan Hickson series, thought they were more true to the stories, and better character wise. Less focused on sensationalist drama and taking....''liberties'', shall we say.

@JediMasterCheryl Hey, I agree with you! Dama Agatha wrote many other fine mysteries (I'm hoping to see Death Comes as the End as a movie/TV production some day). If the producers of PBS are so desperate to continue cranking out AC adaptations,why don't they do some of them and stay true to the books?

[TheExlurker]

Why do ignorant people exist? I swear I hate them more than anything and hope that they die off this earth and take their "precious" so called life to the grave and explain to GOD why they treated his own creation like they are not humans.

Now this show is excellent and I would rather people commented on Miss Marple rather than focus on ethnic groups or gays.....it is not your place to judge others trust me.....you will regret it in the long term!

@207rockchick Wow I am glad there is a person like you who thinks the same way as I do. Gays cannot compare their struggle to that of the black people. Only fools make that comparison.

[calihartley2010]

@jmuslvr Wow you cannot compare discrimination against gays to blacks. Blacks were discrminated based on race and skin color. Gays are being discriminated because of their perverse lifestyle which is a sin. Being black is not a sin, but commiting gay acts is a sin. Sadly the liefstyle that both gays and blacks advocate is ruining the western world. Gays because they want people to accept and spread their sinful lifestyle and blacks want people to accept ghetto culture and rap culture.

I agree with comments that the latest MMs are missing the point. For me, AC novels are not only mysteries, they are period dramas. I enjoy reading about and watching behaviors and conventions from AC's time and place. Changing characters' behavior and dialogue to fit with modern ideas would be like changing dialogue and behavior in a movie version of a Jane Austen or a Dickens novel (Elizabeth Bennet swearing!?). The period is important. It is not secondary to the plot.  Love Joan Hickson!

@JediMasterCheryl *said sarcastically* Oh, but this is the new millennium. You have to have the token gay, just like the 90s had the token black man and so on.

[brexander1]

@JediMasterCheryl I agree wholeheartedly with your comment here, these recent versions i.e. of Marple (McEwen/McKenzie) being riddled with vicious tinkering of AC's original storyline are beyond redemption...they are tho' I might add beautifully acted, casted with top-notch actors, richly set scenes, quality music & period fashion etc but one has to ask themselves to whom are they meant to appeal (not AC fans!)? And why? Someone with too many $ & no writing talent of their own! But all for not!
