- Reviewed in Canada on January 10, 2025Verified PurchasePurchased for my sister who is a huge Agatha Christie fan. This Miss Marple is her favourite one.
- Reviewed in Canada on August 11, 2020Verified PurchaseI purchased these disks for my wife and I am more concerned about the quality than the content because I'm not part of the target audience. She is very pleased with the content and I the quality. The box arrived in perfect shape, all discs where they should be mounted. Removed each disc from the set and test played them for audio/video quality, seek, pause, resume and play. No faults noted in any of the discs and the quality of the video is fantastic.
If you're a fan, buy with confidence, these are faithfully reproduced with good audio and video.
- Reviewed in Canada on September 8, 2021Verified PurchaseOther interpretations of Miss Marple abound and can be found for free on the internet, but they just don't even come close to Joan Hickson's Miss Marple. Worth every penny to get the "real" Miss Marple collection that stays true to the times and the spirit of the Agatha Christie classics.
- Reviewed in Canada on September 23, 2022Verified PurchaseI know there is about 20 movies of Miss Marple so it is not the complete collection
- Reviewed in Canada on August 27, 2023Verified PurchaseLoved reading Agatha Christie, love the stories.

Reviewed in Canada on July 7, 2022Verified PurchaseJ'ai utilisé ce produit pour regarder personnellemnt dans mes temps libres.
Vidéo dont le son et les images sont excellents. La série fut livrée en moins de temps que prévu.
- Reviewed in Canada on July 11, 2019Verified PurchaseHave you ever watched the movie "Murder By Death"? Google it - buy it
One of the characters is called Miss Marbles. The plot is a reader of mystery novels invites the worlds best detectives to solve a murder.
Frolic and frivolity insures
At the end of the murder as all the detectives come forward to claim the prize money and are told by the "murder victim - very much alive that he is sick and tires of plots that don't develop and information in the last two pages of the book that reveals the murder with information and clues that have JUST been revealed.
That is the long and the short of this collection.
I have watched each episode at least twice, knowing who did it and try to follow the path to revealing who did it.
I must be loosing the plot!
It was a great price, and if you like Agatha, go for it.
You won't be disappointed.
You might be pissed when the murder is revealed because of a crumb of white toast found in the stone floor in the drawing room by a maid who mentioned to Miss Marple, "that was a big party last night mum. I found WHITE toast crumb in the crack of the 300 year old stone floor"
- Reviewed in Canada on January 1, 2021Verified PurchaseWe have a cottage where we go most weekends in the summer but, unfortunately, no T.V. reception. When we run out of movies to watch Joan Hickson as Miss Marple is a great choice to fill in a few hours. I can watch her over and over and still enjoy her acting she is so good!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Miss Marple Fully Remastered!
Verified PurchaseBBC’s remastering of Joan Hickson’s “Miss Marple” episodes is a huge success as far as I’m concerned. The colors and clarity are bright and beautiful. The sound has been cleaned up. Hickson’s masterworks now look as good as her acting and Christie’s writing deserve.
Joan Hickson played Miss Marple in 12 episodes and all 12 of them are included in this Complete Collection. That’s 23 ½ hours of top-notch mystery viewing. English subtitles are available.
The Complete Collection includes one Bonus Feature, the 3-part 2013 British TV series “A Very British Murder”.
Each part of the bonus feature is 50 minutes long. Host Dr. Lucy Worsley takes you on a tour of England’s love affair with murder mysteries. Part One tells how real-life murders became an entertainment industry, starting in 1810. Part Two covers two important changes. First, the London Metropolitan Police Force, in the last half of the 19th century, becomes scientific. They actually start detecting. Secondly, improved literacy rates and cheaper books meant that fictional detectives became stars. If you’ve read about the public’s outcry when Conan Doyle killed off Sherlock Holmes in 1893, you have an idea of the grip fictional mysteries had on the public. Part Three carries forward with the newly sensationalized reporting of real murders, as well as the Golden Age of Detective Fiction. All in all, this Bonus feature is a pleasant few hours of murder!
In case you are wondering, there is no NEW material in this Complete Collection. Hickson’s remastered episodes were previously issued in three DVD/BluRay sets, titled Volumes One, Two and Three. Each of those 3 sets has one of the 3 parts of Lucy Worsley’s TV series. So, if, like me, you already have the three Volumes of remastered episodes, you will get nothing new in the Complete Collection.
Volume One Episodes:
“Murder at the Vicarage”
“The Moving Finger”
“The Body in the Library”
“A Murder is Announced”
Miss Marple: Volume One
Volume Two Episodes:
“They Do It With Mirrors”
“A Pocketful of Rye”
“4:50 From Paddington”
“The Mirror Crack’d From Side to Side”
Miss Marple: Volume Two
Volume Three Episodes:
“A Carribean Mystery”
“At Bertram’s Hotel”
“N”
“The Sleeping Murder”
Miss Marple: Volume Three
If you haven’t yet sprung for the remastered Miss Marple, I can highly recommend it. It is amazing how well the show looks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Miss Marple the Complete Collection
Verified PurchaseI am very happy with my purchase, the product was exactly as advertised, and it arrived four weeks earlier than the estimated delivery date. There are no subtitles as has been reported by others, and I am enjoying watching my favourite Miss Marple again.
