Miss Marple rewatch: 4.50 From Paddington

I'm sure it's not a coincidence that the last four Miss Marple books to be adapted by the BBC were the ones which had previously been done as films. I'd guess it was a rights issue; fortunately, whatever it was, it must have been resolved, and the four remaining books were done as one-off telemovies. The first of these is 4:50 from Paddington; coincidentally, in a previous adaptation (the film Murder She Said) Joan Hickson had played Mrs Kidder, the housekeeper.
