June Whitfield was so talented, I love the beginning when she is describing the characters and calls the wife a"sexy piece", great download, loved listening to it again, thank you

Best Miss Marple ever. True to the character in the books. True to an intelligent lady born in Victorian times. Her voice, timing, accent, intonation -- just right.

Pocket full of rye was the very first book of AC that I ever read. It has so many twists and turns that I just couldn’t guess the murderer. It started my love of this author. That was 40 years ago, followed miss marble and poirot solve the mysteries in very different ways. From books, tv and I now enjoy listening to these readings, often listening to the same ones again. .

Why the preamble? We don’t need to have the plot rolled out in advance. And your opinion is also superfluous.

Was this being PC? It’s not a dickie bird, it’s a blackbird 😂😂😂

@rbrown6476 25 күн бұрын

When I was a child in the fifties and sixties, almost everyone used the expression “dickiebird”. I just think it was a sort of nickname that you told to children, when they were learning to speak. Maybe like “pussy cat” or “choo-choo train”. It definitely wasn’t PC! There was no such thing in those days. Casual racism was the norm and very unpleasant too. Agatha Christie used a very pejorative name for one of her novels, ‘And Then There Were None’ (the modern title). You can look that one up, folks, it doesn’t bear writing down. PC is a kinder way to behave towards other people, and makes for a nicer place to live if you aren’t the ‘norm’ in other people’s eyes. Having said all that, Agatha Christie is a constant favourite for me - I have one of her novels on the go almost permanently. 😊

Only if you forced yourself to listen to a section you disliked. Others who also disliked the intro were clever enough to skip over it.
