Murder on the Paddington Express

Warning: Spoilers
I like Miss Marple, and 4.50 from Paddington doesn't disappoint. There are some very dark moments here, although I had to rewind at times to keep up with the family tree. I sometimes wish the characters addressed each other by name as a reminder to the audience.

Amanda Holden shines in 4.50 from Paddington. I must admit, I sometimes get Amanda mixed up with Billie Piper. It's a shame Amanda didn't make more appearances in the Marple series.

John Hannah also appears. I remember John Hannah from McCallum, a TV series which screened in 1997-98. In fact, in the McCallum episode City of the Dead, John's character is in a steamy love scene but I'm unsure if it was a body double or what.

Pam Ferris, who at the time had starred in Rosemary & Thyme, also appears in a critical role.
