Just watched this new Christie adaptation and really enjoyed it. Unlike ITVs Marple travesty, this one has stuck to the original plot, although some stuff has been added. Lots of big names in it. Directed by Hugh Laurie who also plays Doctor Nicholson.

It's not as light-hearted as the book but Frankie is played as I imagine her to be. Bobby was well portrayed too, although not as dense as he is in the book.

ITV shoehorned her into it. And completely changed the plot. This is much better.
