AGATHA CHRISTIE'S MISS MARPLE: TOWARDS ZERO
Sunday, 10 February 2008
The formidable Lady Tressilian (Eileen Atkins) reluctantly hosts a house party at her Devon estate, where loyal companion Mary (Julie Graham) and old friend Treves (Tom Baker) help their wheelchair-bound host entertain a glittering array of guests. Eyebrows are raised when the dashing Wimbledon tennis star Neville Strange (Greg Wise) arrives with his attractive but high maintenance new wife Kay (Zoe Tapper), even though his elegant first wife Audrey (Saffron Burrows) is also attending.
Miss Marple (Geraldine McEwan), an old school friend of Lady Tressilian, is intrigued when the eccentric Treves tells a story about a child murderer who was never convicted. The next day, Treves is found dead.
Sexual tensions and marital mishaps play out as Miss Marple observes the guests as they holiday by the sea. And it's not long before another gruesome murder takes place. Local Superintendent Mallard (Alan Davies) tries to find the killer within this tightly wound group of people and finds betrayal and revenge at the heart of it all.
