They are nice, aren’t they? A nice switch to exercise the little gray cells, to quote another famous literary sleuth, Hercule Poirot.

Thank you! Love these, listen while I’m doing household chores, driving…

Loved Maigret with Jean Gabin. I can always tell the distinct voices of Maurice Denham and Michael Gough, great actors.

The theme music is Altair by Hingross if anyone is interested, I love that tune.

The great war is the first world war, 1914-18. The book written in 1931 so a few years before the second world war 1939-1945 (I'm British hence the dating), which makes the picture pretty well dated. Sorry to be picky but I was a little taken aback at your dating of the great war.

@@jessamysilverman3058 I agree with your 'pinickiness'! The Maigret stories were written/set during the 'inter War' years [1918-39].

Too much advertising

There is something that doesn't quite 'gel' with a Continental detective dealing with mostly ordinary class crime in a Continental setting. Lacks a certain ... je ne sais pas, in the absence of an English setting.

Interrupted by stupid ad - NO THANKS!

Not great

Apart from Maurice Denham the acting here is roughly village Panto standard . Were they really so short of actors at that time..??

@austenj4539

Panto acting in this Maigret adaptation! Oh no it isn't!

Nice English. Not as incredibly reduced as US "tump-istan" english. Not as elaborate as fairly decent british english is though. At least the speakers try to add some (pronouciation) level on top of the written script. The cheap, anoying adds interrupting the listening are launched by chineese advertizers trying to promote bullshity hair, beard and parfume products.
