Father Brown on ABC and ABC iview S11E2 – The charismatic crime-fighting priest returns to solve more mysteries in the beautiful English countryside.
Based on the character created by GK Chesterton.
Father Brown (Mark Williams) is roped in to judge the life drawing competition by local shop owner Gaynor Garfield (Ingrid Oliver) at her inaugural arts and crafts fair. Mrs Devine (Claudie Blakley) is excited to participate but Gaynor is uncharacteristically furious when she discovers that Meryl Plunkett (Lydia Larson) has publicised the event in an art journal.
Preparation for the fair is interrupted by the arrival of renowned artist Marmaduke Snell (Edward Bennett) who leaves a trail of destruction in his wake – savagely insulting Meryl’s jewellery and threatening local artist Cyril Frogmore’s (Kenneth Collard) chances in the competition.
Elsewhere, Father Brown is delighted to see his old friend and vintner Sister Boniface (Lorna Watson) when she drops off a delivery of her wine at the fair. When Marmaduke drops dead after drinking a glass, Father Brown becomes determined to find the culprit before Sister Boniface is charged with murder.
