Father Brown

My husband loves it. He also likes Miss Marple, Heartbeat, Prime Suspect, Doc Martin and Poirot.....all old programmes.

I recorded several programmes as I enjoy this series. I was disappointed to find they were all repeats.
I am enjoying the new series of Grantchester though.

Yes, Mark Williams is very appealing! I saw him onstage at Birmingham Rep in Tartuffe a few years ago, excellent production. Dazzling pantomime set and Mrs Barbara Nice too, a real treat.

I always watch, but I'd watch Mark Williams in anything really!à

I remember my father reading the Father Brown books. He used to call them Enid Blyton for grown ups

It's a great excuse to settle down with a cuppa. DH disappears to his workshop.

Bring back Sid Carter!

I remember watching when Kenneth More was Father Brown in the seventies, and we are only lately come to this new incarnation. Thoroughly hooked. Love Mark Williams and all the cast, but I have to say I preferred the previous police inspector to the current one. Lovely, funny, gentle drama. Busy catching up on all the past episodes.

DH is a big fan. I watch it too, although sometimes whilst doing other things. They do show a lot of repeats though. Have recently seen a couple of weeks of a new series and now sadly back to repeats.

I love it if I stumble upon it - or just leave the tv on after Doctors (which I don't deliberately watch ).

The Father Brown books were on a reading list provided by the school our boys attended - isn't that quaint!

I used to watch it in the afternooms when the previous series were on, now that my husband has discovered it, we watch it in the evening.
I was going to say it's a gentle series, but it's not. There are more murders than Midsomer Murders!
