Who is the greatest Miss Marple , Poirot?

[poppicker]

For me its always Joan Hickson and David Suchet.

Anyone else have a favourite?

Really like Joan Hickson as Miss Marple. She almost 'is' Miss Marple in the way she looks and acts etc. Although I do like Margaret Rutherford in the Marple role. She adds her own slightly comic twist to the character. As far as Poirot goes I can't really comment. I personally don't like the Poirot stories.

For me it is Margaret Rutherford as Marple and Sir Peter Ustinov as Poirot. Loved them both in the roles.


Cheers, Finnthedude.

I like the classics myself
Margaret Rutherford (Once as a kid I videoed a couple of her Marple films and watch them over and over again "Murder at the Gallop" was a particular fave, also remember watching "Murder Ahoy")
Peter Ustinov for Poirot.
Purely due to the fact that I loved and still love watching those era films.
