In France, Albert Préjean portrayed Maigret in three films; [1] Picpus, Cecile Is Dead, and Majestic Hotel Cellars. A decade later, Jean Gabin played the part in three other films; [1] Maigret Sets a Trap, Maigret et l'Affaire Saint-Fiacre, and Maigret voit rouge. Heinz Rühmann played the lead in a 1966 European international co-production Enter Inspector Maigret. Unlike most BBC series produced in the 1960s, all episodes (bar the pilot) have survived intact, and are available as a complete set on DVD and Blu-ray. In most novels, Maigret is aged around 45 to 55 years. There are contradictive clues to his year of birth. In Monsieur Gallet, décédé, which takes place in 1930, Maigret is described as 45, indicating 1885 as his year of birth. In another novel La première enquete de Maigret, where the investigation takes place in 1913, the author states that Maigret is 26, which establish his year of birth as 1887. In the 1932 novel L'affaire Saint-Fiacre, Maigret is 42, which would mean he was born in 1890, assuming that Maigret is contemporary to the year the novel was written. [9] Maigret star Richard dies".

In 1950, Charles Laughton played the first English-language Maigret in The Man on the Eiffel Tower, [1] adapted from the 1931 novel A Battle of Nerves. The film co-starred Franchot Tone, Burgess Meredith, and Wilfrid Hyde-White. Quite simply, this is a pleasure. It's a fine translation of the work of a true master and very warmly recommended.Lachman, Marvin (2014). The villainous stage: crime plays on Broadway and in the West End. McFarland.

Recurring characters in the series include Maigret's wife Louise (usually referred to simply as Madame Maigret) [7] and in particular "The Faithful Four", a group consisting of his four loyal police colleagues (Sgt./Inspector Lucas, Janvier, Lapointe, and Torrence [7]). Maurice Denham played Chief Inspector Maigret in a series of three-quarter-hour dramatizations of the novels on BBC Radio 4 beginning in 1976, with Michael Gough playing Georges Simenon. The format of each play would begin with Maigret and Simenon sitting together discussing some fact or event which would then lead into Maigret's recounting a particular case, with Simenon asking questions or commenting from time to time. After Denham's death, the series was continued in 2003 with Nicholas Le Prevost playing a gruffer, more earthy Maigret and Julian Barnes playing Simenon.Their window had been repaired (the burglar's usual way in) and the dentist's wife had left him, 2 nights ago, to return to Holland. They deny any odd happenings, and the window had broken in a storm, but Maigret finds the ironmonger, and discovers that a 2nd pane of glass had been bought. Could that have been to repair the burglar's breakage - and why hadn't it been reported? Maigret is a British television series made by the BBC and which – following a pilot episode broadcast in 1959 – ran for 52 episodes from 1960 to 1963. [1] I have only one complaint about this series, and this book in particular: they go by too fast. This was my favorite so far--a woman Maigret arrested years ago for theft who embarrassed him by stripping naked and refusing to go with him (and who is the "tall woman" of the title) comes to him to ask him find her boyfriend, a thief who discovered a dead woman while robbing an affluent dentist. But when Maigret investigates there is no body and the dentist denies having been robbed.
