About this listen

June Whitfield returns as the deceptively mild spinster sleuth in three full-cast BBC Radio 4 dramatisations.

Specially broadcast to mark the 125th anniversary of Agatha Christie's birth, these brand new dramas are based on three of her best short stories.

Tape-Measure Murder: When Mrs Spenlow is murdered in St Mary Mead, the village gossips all agree that her husband must have killed her – until Miss Marple is called as an alibi....

The Case of the Perfect Maid: Miss Marple investigates the problem of a lady's maid who has been mysteriously sacked – while also helping her crime writer nephew Raymond West to cure his writer's block.

Sanctuary: Miss Marple and her god-daughter Bunch are horrified when they discover a dying man in the local church. Can Miss Marple deduce his identity – and his killer – from his last words?

First published in the collection Miss Marple's Final Cases, these three delightfully clever tales will keep you guessing till the end. Starring June Whitfield – reprising her role as Miss Marple for the first time since 2001 – they are dramatised for BBC Radio 4 by Joy Wilkinson.

Like all the reviews I read before purchasing this, I have to say the stories are a tad short but not unpleasurable. It is like a condensed story of each murder mystery so there is less suspense of a whodunnit, however, these 3 stories are still very entertaining and if you happen to be preparing lunch and want to listen to a story, it will be just about the right length before the potatoes and carrots have boiled. June Whitfield sounds genuinely older and it only adds to her performance and to the stories. I'm happy with the purchase as they were half price but I wouldn't pay full price for these 3 shortened stories, so I'd say to buy this when it is on sale.
