Don't know about Miss Marple but Peter Ustinov is "the" Hercule Poirot....

[Meyerland]

Marple: Geraldine McEwan is the top followed by Joan Hickson

Poirot: David Suchet

[Mouldy Old Schmo]

The first "Miss Marple" Americans saw on the big screen was British character actress Margaret Rutherford, who played her as a feisty woman with a comic flair in a series of MGM movies made in England in the early 60s.
