June Whitfield returns as the deceptively mild spinster sleuth in three full-cast BBC Radio 4 dramatisations. Originally broadcast to mark the 125th anniversary of Agatha Christie’s birth, these brand-new dramas are based on three of her best short stories. First published in the collection Miss Marple’s Final Cases, these three delightfully clever tales will keep you guessing till the end.

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….
Cast: June Whitfield, Rosie Cavaliero, Stephen Critchlow, Jessica Turner, Alison Pettit, Sam Dale and Chris Pavlo.
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.
Cast: June Whitfield, Raymond Coulthard, Claudie Blakley, Tracy Wiles, Stephen Critchlow, Jessica Turner and Alex Tregear.
Sanctuary
Miss Marple and her god-daughter Bunch discover a dying man in the local church. Can Miss Marple deduce his identity – and his killer – from his last words?

Outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare, Agatha Christie is the best-selling novelist of all time. She is best known for her 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections, as well as the world’s longest-running play – The Mousetrap.
