Agatha Christie's Miss Marple (BBC 1984-1992) | A Pocketful of Rye - Part 1 (Episode 9)

A Pocket Full of Rye is a work of detective fiction by Agatha Christie and first published in the UK by the Collins Crime Club on 9 November 1953. A Pocket Full of Rye was the fourth transmitted story in the BBC series of Miss Marple adaptations, which starred Joan Hickson as the elderly sleuth.

Despite remaining faithful to the novel, apart from giving the title as "A Pocketful of Rye", the characters of Mrs MacKenzie, Gerald Wright and Elaine Fortescue did not make an appearance. In the end, the murderer dies in a car crash, while there is no such thing in the novel.

Episode 9: Members of a wealthy business family start to be murdered one by one, along with one of their maids. Features of the killings remind Miss Marple of the old nursery rhyme Sing a Song of Sixpence, and she vows to find the villain behind the crimes.
