1. I love her quite a lot.
2. Her scary brain hidden under a deceptive front.
3. It's not exactly a moment, but I love the way she's explored in Nemesis - as Nemesis, despite her penchant for fluffy pink knitting.
4. Having her brains would make me v v awesome.
6. It's hard to say. When I was small, I was terrified of her, thanks to the BBC versions, which were scary! So that put me off reading her books and I read nearly all the other Christies first, but somewhere along the line I have switched to loving the Miss Marple books far more than Poirot or any of the others. They are actually full of awesome middle-aged and elderly old ladies doing stuff. It's great.
7. Miss Marple/Murder mystery. It's canon. She gets ill without one to solve, her doctor even says so. I do have a little Miss Marple/Dermot Craddock thing - if they'd not been so far apart in age, I think she's his ideal woman. So he calls her Aunt Jane, but there's a bit of flirtiness between them. Hardly to be compared to Miss Marple/Murder Mystery, though.
