Father Brown maybe a tad too BBC daytime and low budget yet it manages to fit in some humour, mystery and fun at a dazzling pace.
The first episode of the 1950s set Grantchester looked to be a little too smug and also slow to get going. Being a prime time drama, it had more gorgeous scenery and a more handsome star in James Norton who we initially see by the river with a beautiful woman but it turns out that Norton is the clergyman Sidney Chambers, also haunted his experience as a soldier in the war and is asked to investigate an apparent suicide of an adulterous solicitor.
Chambers has to convince hard nosed but sceptical detective Geordie (Robson Green) to investigate that a crime may have been committed. Luckily Geordie strikes an easy going friendship with the Reverend.
