![]() ![]() They changed one of the murderers to be female rather than male, namely, they changed Mark's role to Adelaide so that she would be a happy lesbian together with Josie. The very first episode welcomes us with the change to the characters, plot, and identity of the murderer. Inauthenticity is one of the defining characteristics of this TV series. There are more considerable issues with this series, which I will cover in this review. ![]() ![]() I could really say that most of Marple's episodes are those inaccurate episodes of Poirot. In comparison, Poirot only had very few episodes that were loosely based (most notably The Big Four and The Labours of Hercules). Agatha Christie's Marple was known to take extreme liberties with the original plots of the detective novels of honorable Lady Agatha. This could not be applied to Geraldine McEwan or Julia McKenzie, nor to their inferior TV series. David Suchet's portrayal of notorious detective Hercule Poirot is without a doubt the most authentic and accurate one, and also the one that mostly followed the source material pretty darn closely. ![]()
