Miss Marple was one of the first heroines I posted about on Helen's Heroines, so I was delighted to hear about the new series of whodunits that are currently being filmed. In recent years the part of Miss Marple has been played brilliantly by Geraldine McEwan, but after her recent retirement Julia McKenzie (pictured) will now play the meddlesome sleuth. Geraldine, however, still has Miss Marple films to be shown on ITV this year, Nemesis and Towards Zero.
Julia McKenzie's first Marple will be A Pocketful of Rye which will also star Helen Baxendale, Matthew MacFadyen, Wendy Richard, Prunella Scales and Ralf Little.
