A MURDER IS ANNOUNCED by Agatha Christie adapted by Leslie Darbon Directed by John Cocks-Evans In a gripping twist, an announcement in the local paper declares the specific time and place when a murder is to occur at Miss Blacklock's house. This eerie proclamation sets the stage for a suspenseful tale in which the intended victim turns out to be neither Miss Blacklock nor any of her several housemates, but rather an unexpected and unknown visitor. What ensues is a classic Agatha Christie mystery filled with a web of mixed motives and concealed identities. The plot thickens with the occurrence of a second murder, intensifying the mystery. As the investigation progresses, a determined inspector tirelessly unravels the complex twists and turns of the case. Amidst the growing tension, Miss Marple, with her keen insight and astute observations, steps in to solve the mystery.
