I watched the show yesterday, and spent most of it wondering where I had seen the 'Bobby' actor previously.

Had to look it up on Wikipedia. Of course, he was this chap:



Overall it was a much better production than the Miss Marple version ITV had previously done, although I suspect this version had a much healthier budget and an extra hour to tell the story.

A few more jokes than the usual Christie adaptation as well.

Impressive cast too! Thought Paul Whitehouse running the Anglers Arms was a nice touch and Hugh Laurie being a slightly unhinged Doctor.

You can find the details via the DVLA's Vehicle Enquiry Service - https://vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk - if the real reg is filmed.
