"You look old enough to know better."
On a train back home Miss Marple (Margaret Rutherford) views the murder of a woman in another train. Unable to get the police to believe her she determines to investigate herself, and takes a position in the household of Ackenthorpe (James Robertson Justice), in the belief that one of the family did the deed.
The first in the series, that was to spawn three more, is a wonderfully concocted mystery, featuring some splendid acting, topped off with some sparkling and biting dialogue.
