This is great.  Definitely want to see mechapoirot. Is there a Miss Marple? Preferably David Suchet and Margaret Rutherford inspired, respectively. 

You mean Joan Hickson the definitive Marple that Agatha herself said should play her when she aged into the part.  Rutherford is like the current Poirot of Branagh, a caricature of the character.

Branagh's Poirot is a bad joke, agreed.  The man should stick to Shakespeare.  Agatha might not have approved of Rutherford at first, but grew to like her and her performances.  And I'm afraid I am a bit more unschooled in Marples. Just what's been on Turner classic. Now her modern reincarnation, Jessica Fletcher, dad has on the TV almost daily, and gets depressed when Hallmark preempts her with Christmas treacle in December.

No, no Miss Marple yet, but Mecha Poirot is very Suchet-like.
