Agatha Raisin is an Acorn TV crime comedy series based on the novels by M C Beaton and portrayed by Ashley Jensen. The series commenced in 2016 following a pilot in 2014 entitled 'Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death' based on the first book. The series has run for four seasons to date. I only have one book in my collection with a TV-themed cover. There are currently (to 2024) thirty five original Agatha Raisin novels by M C Beaton, thirty before her death in 2019 and five posthumously with RW Green (list at bottom of gallery) Agatha Raisin was also a BBC Radio 4 drama starring Penelope Keith and I have some books mentioning the radio broadcast on the cover. = In My Collection / = Not in My Collection
