Trivia
This was Maurice Evans' final acting role before his death on March 12, 1989 at the age of 87.

Goofs
When Marple opens a book on psychiatry, we see that the book was taken in the library five times from 1941 to 1951. However, To Define True Madness first came out in 1953 (by Sidgwick and Jackson), and the cover shown before belongs to the revised (Penguin Books) edition in 1955. In the Agatha Christie's work (Chapter 21) neither the title of the book nor the library insert is mentioned.

Quotes

Ok, but used an American Jane Marple!

If you love Agatha Christie, this may be a little disappointing.

Jane Marple has the incredibly annoying habit of mispronouncing English words with a dreadful American twang! As if the quintessential Miss Marple would ever be so awfully common.

I love a good Agatha Christie. This was not a "good" AG. It was mediocre at best.
