Joan Hickson was Agatha Christie's choice for Miss Maple according to a note the author penned to the actress in the 1940's after watching her onstage in 'Appointment With Death'. Queen Elizabeth II agreed, telling Ms. Hickson in 1987 "You play the part just as one envisages it" regarding her portrayal of Miss Marple
Joan Hickson is definitely my favorite Miss Marple ❤️!!
Mine, too.
@@garywait3231and mine! 🇦🇺
Ditto
Yes, mine too. Lovely voice...
Mine too!!!
What a wonderful voice she has to listen to while going to sleep
She's unfailingly calm & strangely re-assuring - someone you feel you know & who is absolutely dependable. Qualities so hard to find these days. I absolutely love her!
I most enjoyed Joan Hickson as Miss Marple.
The absolute best!!!
Wow! thanks a lot! She is the best Miss Marple!
Miss Hickson mines beautifully every laugh in the text, and perhaps some that wouldn't have been noticed by most of the rest of us. Brava! (To tell the truth, I didn't used to like her as Miss Marple, I thought her too vinegary, but the knowing glances from those china blue eyes won me over.)
Doesn't she just! I have a permanent urge to grin listening to her.
Too much the parfit gentil femme to be vinegary. Very dry sherry maybe.

Listen at .75 speed.
(♥ + 👍+ 👏) × eternity = Joan Hickson!!!
Pilocarpine reminds me of Greenshaw's Folly.... Was the Thumbmark of St.Peter adapted from it or vice versa, I wonder?
10 out of 10🎉
I loved Joan Hickson as Miss Marple, but I dont know why but her voice has grated and annoyed me so much on this audio book I have had to stop listening. Its too much constantly with the 'Queens Speech' voice. I respect and love a beautiful English voice, but this is really hard work to keep listening too sadly. :( But thank you Joy for the upload. :)
his name is Sir Henry Clithering not Henry Slithering!!
Who did the voice over my gooooooood
joan hickson
Joan Hicks played Miss Marple for a number of tv episodes back in the 1980s or 90s. She was absolutely wonderful. My favorite actress in the role. She could be the slightly scattered and gossipy old lady who could then give a single look and absolutely convince me to the bottom of my soul how shockingly intelligent she was.
@@heatherheardwhat1103 i couldnt stand hickson, loved margeret rutherford as marple even though they got a bit too inventive "adapting" the shows to be considered true to christie. delighted with geraldine mcewans portrayal but alas with her death in 2015 there will be no more.😢😢🙁

Thanks. Do you know what's first?
@@agam406 No sorry. I skipped over bc I had heard beginning so many times. I listen to so many I don't remember one from another until I actually start listening. HNY!

Margaret Rutherford is my all-time favourite Miss Marple.
If you want a comedy version of Marple then she is iindeed fine.
... do "grown up" british Ladys actually speak like this ?
I'll have to put this on my "listen later list"
and save it for one of my more relaxed, and thus more agreeable or tolerant evenings.
Very much obliged for uploading this though.
🙏🏽
Proper British ladies yes
I'm so excited for you you're going to love it
Agree. Just a little difficult to listen and understand.
Do listen ...she’s marvellous and I think of Miss Marple’s time
Higher class English ladies used to speak like this, but not really anymore. In the 1970s I had a teacher who was just like Miss Marple, but they don't make them like that anymore!
@@antonioveritas I must very politely disagree - I speak exactly in the same way as Joan Hickson, so too do many of my friends and acquaintances
Hickson is very hard work on the ears. She swallows so many vowels and is no nasal. Too plummy. Hugh Fraser is much easier to follow.
What do you mean 'no nasal'?!
I don’t mind watching Joan Hickson ‘play’ Miss Marple but I cannot bear ‘listening’ to her scratchy and annoying voice as a narrator. Sorry to all the Hickson fans. 😅
Really? I love her voice.
Very hard work on the ears. She swallows so many vowels and is no nasal. Too plummy. Hugh Fraser is much easier to follow.
Awful - read far too fast. The almost comedic inflection coupled with the speed of oration makes it often incomprehensible. Just dreadful.
