Sister Boniface Mysteries on ABC – From the makers of Father Brown and Shakespeare & Hathaway is the new light-hearted murder mystery series starring a Vespa driving, crime solving Catholic nun: Sister Boniface (Lorna Watson).
EPISODE 1
At the Great Slaughter Mangold Wurzel Festival, festivities come to an abrupt halt when a young woman’s corpse is found within the Aunt Sally dummy.
Meanwhile, DS Felix Livingstone (Jerry Iwu), on secondment from Bermuda, has wound up in Great Slaughter rather than his intended employment at Scotland Yard.
Sister Boniface (Lorna Watson) speedily introduces him to the case and the victim is identified as Grace Pearson (Daniella Phillips), housemaid to the Bellamy Family – a trio of eccentric siblings Electra (Silvia Presente), Edwin (Michael Marcus) and Fabian (Fred Fergus), who recently became wealthy after the sudden death of their uncle. A death which Sister Boniface begins to suspect was anything but natural.
The unintelligible accents, unorthodox policing methods, not to mention the boss’s reliance on a Catholic Nun, leave Felix reeling. But can the addition of this reluctant recruit help the gang to solve the case?
