Father Brown: The Menace of Mephistopheles (2022)
Season 9, Episode 1
6/10
The Menace of Mephistopheles
4 January 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Father Brown is back after skipping a year due to lack of filming because of Covid 19.

He certainly has been missed. The first episode starts with a murder in a stately house. Inspector Mallory is seen placing a murder weapon.

Later Mallory destroys evidence and Sergeant Goodfellow is not happy that Mallory is trying to fit someone up.

Father Brown suspects there has to be a reason why Mallory is acting out of character. It seems Malloy's family has been abducted.

An intriguing opening with a race against time to save Mallory's family.

There is a cad who might has just married the dead man's daughter for her money. The arrested suspect does little to help himself. Mallory might be paying a price for once sending an innocent person to jail.

The new series sees the return of Sid Carter but no Bunty for now.
