TAF2020 Replay Saturday Session 3
2.30 pm
Panel Session: Marple vs. Holmes
You will hear:
MC Catherine du Peloux Menagé
Panellists Joanna Baker, Lindy Cameron, Meg Keneally and L.J.M. Owen
Podcaster Barbie Robinson
Why does Sherlock fan-fic abound, yet homages to Miss Marple are few and far between? Both have incredibly sharp minds and observational skills, and Marple brings an element of compassion and understanding of the human condition to her investigations that Holmes lacks.
Meg Keneally interviews her co-conspirators in the Sherlock Holmes: The Australian Casebook anthology - Lindy Cameron and L.J.M. Owen - and Christie aficionada Joanna Baker, on the relative popularity of expanding Sherlock’s world vs. Miss Marple’s.
Will we see a flourishing of Marple fan-fic any time soon?
