G.K. Chesterton's kindly, cassocked crime-solver!

With a distinct twinkle behind his spectacles, Kenneth More brings G.K. Chestertons beloved Father Brown to the screen in a classic British television series. When it comes to amateur detective work, dont let this priests absent-minded air and penchant for an occasional tipple fool you. His kindly eyes pick up clues that professionals usually miss, and his keen understanding of the human condition lets him search mens souls for motives. Often joined by his friend, the thief-turned-private-investigator Hercule Flambeau (Dennis Burgess), Father Brown has won legions of fans as much for his compassion as for his crime-solving.
