This episode is a great way to spend the evening if you're a fan of 'cozy' mysteries! I haven't read any of the Miss Marple books, but I've enjoyed the episodes I've seen, and The Pale Horse was a pleasure to watch! My family watched it with me, and they all seemed to really like it, too-from my grandparents, to my parents, to my younger sister (who came in part way through). As for the ending, well, let's just say I didn't see it coming-which is a good thing when it comes to mysteries, right? I loved the surprises, and Miss Marple is a heroine to admire! I like the array of characters, as well as the twists and turns along the way. 'Teaming up' with an inspector (who doesn't really appreciate her meddling ways at first), she tracks down leads and eventually ends up at the Pale Horse Inn, where she encounters 'witches,' secretive guests, and a complex and dangerous scheme. When Miss Marple receives a letter with a list of names from a dear friend (Father Gorman), and then later discovers that Gorman has been murdered, she sets off to seek justice for her friend and follow the clue that he gave his life to protect. ) Gotta love a hero with a sense of humor and a great smile!Īnyway, overall I found 'The Pale Horse' to be a wonderful episode! (And just to clarify, 'episodes' for PBS Masterpiece are movie-length-about 90 minutes, generally.) With plenty of interesting suspects, a creepy setting, and the ever-lovable (and quite insightful!) Miss Marple, you get the perfect mix for a 'keep-you-guessing' mystery. When I discovered that JJ Feild was playing a role in this latest episode of Miss Marple, I was even more convinced that I had to see it! JJ Feild was Henry Tilney in Northanger Abbey, and he did a splendid job, in my opinion.

I ended up watching a couple of older Miss Marple episodes with my aunt and uncle while visiting some family in Texas over Thanksgiving break, and I really enjoyed them. And then later that year the new, modern version of Sherlock was an absolute treat for me, and I became intrigued by the Mystery season. In 2010 PBS Masterpiece won me over during the Classics season with shows like Jane Austen's Emma, Northanger Abbey, and the action-packed The 39 Steps.
