Agatha Christie fans, rejoice! The world’s best-loved spinster sleuth returns to MYSTERY! in Agatha Christie’s MISS MARPLE, an all-new series starring acclaimed British actress Geraldine McEwan (The Magdalene Sisters) as the lady with the knitting needles and the needle-sharp powers of deduction.

Beginning Sunday, April 17 and continuing Sundays through June 12 at 9pm on PBS, MYSTERY! will premiere four new adaptations of Christie best sellers, including The Murder at the Vicarage, with guest star Derek Jacobi (April 17 and 24), A Murder is Announced with Zoe Wanamaker, (May 1 and 8), What Mrs. McGillicuddy Saw (aka The 4:50 from Paddington, May 15 and 22), and The Body in the Library with Joanna Lumley (June 5 and 12).
