  English countryside, Mark Williams stars as
  Father Brown, a Catholic priest who also happens
  to have a particular talent for solving crimes.
  Many years spent hearing his parishioners’
  confessions have given him an uncanny insight
  into the origins of evil and the workings of the
  criminal mind. Full of humor and compassion
  but with a big dramatic twist each time, this
  series remains true to the period charm of the
  original character and setting while bringing a
  contemporary edge to the storytelling.
