Crime Scenes / Miesta činu
Here you can find overview of diverse crime scenes - book or filming locations of my favorite detetctive stories, which I detected. And they have something common - most of them are located in South England. Some of them I have visited and so I could know at least a little bit of this wonderful country. And - who knows - may be you find inspiration what to visit in England../
Tu nájdete prehľad rôznych miest činu - knižných alebo filmových lokácií mojich obľúbených detektívok, ktoré som zistila. Majú niečo spoločné - väčšina je situovaná na juh Anglie. Niektoré z nich som aj navštívila a tak som mohla spoznať aspoň malinký kúsok tejto prekrásnej krajiny. A ktovie - možno nájdete inšpiráciu, čo v Anglii navštíviť.

Miss Marple's home / Domov slečny Marplovej
Miss Marple's home is fictitious village St. Mary Mead. Agatha Christie situated it about 20 miles south-west from London. Almost all novels with Miss Marple take place in St. Mary Mead and its near surroundings, ecpecially first novel The Murder at the Vicarage, The Body in the Library, The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side etc. /
Domovom slečny Marplovej je fiktívna dedinka St. Mary Mead. Agatha Christie ju situovala okolo 20 míľ juhozápadne od Londýna. Skoro všetky romány so slečnou Marplovou sa odohrávajú v St. Mary Mead a jeho blízkom okolí, hlavne prvý román Vražda na fare, Mŕtva v knižnici, Puknuté zrkadlo atď.
In films with Joan Hickson as Miss Marple the role of St. Mary Mead "played" picturesque village Nether Wallop in county Hampshire./
Vo filmoch s Joan Hickson ako slečnou Marplovou si úlohu St. Mary Mead "zahrala" malebná dedinka Nether Wallop v grófstve Hampshire.

Poirot's home is Whitehaven Mansions in London. In series and films with David Suchet as Poirot the role of it "plays art deco building Florin Court on Charterhouse Square, London. And one short story The Third Floor Flat takes place directly in Whitehaven Mansions.
I am very glad, that I coud visit this location in 2010 and 2011 I could see inside too. /
Domovom Poirota je Whitehaven Mansions v Londýne. V seriáli a filmoch s Davidom Suchetom ako Poirotom jeho úlohu "hrá" budova v štýle art deco Florin Court na námestí Charterhouse Square v Londýne. A jedna poviedka Byt na treťom poschodí sa odohráva priamo vo Whitehaven Mansions.
Som veľmi rada, že toto miesto som mohla navštíviť v r. 2010 a v r. 2011 aj interér.

Part of story in the book of Agatha Christie Seven Dials Mystery is set in interesting "hidden" village of Covent Garden, London, called Seven Dials. In the early-twentieth century, when the story enacted (1929), it was urban area with doubtful reputation. Nowadays it is bussy, prosperous commercial village in addition very picturesque and beautiful. /
Časť deja knihy Agathy Christie Záhada siedmych ciferníkov sa odohráva v zaujímavej "ukrytej" štvrti Covent Garden, v Londýne, ktorá sa nazýva Sedem ciferníkov. Začiatkom 20-teho storočia, kedy sa príbeh odohráva (1929), to bola mestská časť pochybnej povesti. Dnes je to rušná, prosperujúca obchodná štvrť, navyše veľmi malebná a krásna.

village Seven Dials / štvrť Sedem ciferníkov:
The Seven Dials Mystery was adapted for TV in 1981 with Cheryl Campbell as Lady Eileen “Bundle” Brent and James Warwick (played also Tommy Beresford in couple Tommy and Tuppence) as Jimmy Thesiger and famous John Gielgud as Marquess of Caterham. But I could not detect filmimg location. /
Záhada siedmych ciferníkov bola adaptovaná r. 1981 pre televíziu, s Cheryl Campbell ako Eileen "Paličkou" Brentovou a Jamesom Warwickom (hral aj Tommyho Beresforda z dvojice Tommy a Pentlička) ako Johnom Thesigerom a slávnym Johnom Gielgudom ako markízom z Caterhamu. Ale nepodarilo sa mi zistiť filmovú lokáciu.

It is also planned to be adapted with Miss Marple as a sequel to The Secret of Chimneys from series five, although neither Chimneys or in The Seven Dials Mystery book included Miss Marple (!). /
Plánuje sa aj adaptácia so slečnou Marplovou, ako pokračovanie Tajomstva Chimneys z 5. série, hoci ani v jednej z týchto kníh slečna Marplová nevystupuje (!).

Another charming couple of young people (better I should say trio :-)) - Emily Trefusis, James Pearson and Charles Enderby are main characters in Agatha Christies The Sittaford Mystery. Book location is small fictitious village Sittaford in Dartmoor, which is about 6 miles from fictitious village Exhampton, which is about 30 minutes by train from Exeter. Another pointer of location of Sittaford - it is 12 miles northerly from Princetown. Princetown prison has its role in this story too.
On my journey 2010 I have visited Dartmoor and Exeter. /
Ďalšia roztomilá dvojica mladých ľudí (lepšie povedané trio :-)) - Emily Trefusis, James Pearson a Charles Enderby, sú hlavnými postavami v Sittafordskej záhade od Agathy Christie. Knižnou lokáciou je malá fiktívna dedinka Sittaford, ktorá je asi 6 míľ od fiktívneho Exhamtonu, ktorý je zase asi 30 minút cesty vlakom od Exeteru. Ďalším vodítkom pre kolalizáciu Sittafordu je, že leží 12 míľ severne od Princetownu. Väznica Princetown zohráva v príbehu tiež svoju úlohu.
Na svojej ceste 2010 som bola v Dartmoore aj v Exeteri.
