I adore the random hammyness, the ludicrous over-acting, the really bad double-entendres and the utter eccentricity (especially the 'I want one of those' costumes)! :D Further, I think Geraldine McEwan is really cute for an older lady and, along with Shirley Williams, a comfort to anyone whose ever worried about really minging in old age. She's so much more cheery than the old Miss Marple. I guess I'm glad we've still got Rosemary and Thyme, and Midsomer Murders to keep me in TV murder mystery silliness. But I LOVE Marple.
