The series is extremely well written and crafted, the casting is just perfect.
I am a big fan of Mark Williams, and I believe this role is incredibly well fitting for him, almost as if he were born to interpret Father Brown.
The stories are engaging, not too light and not too dark, just very well balanced, not predictable at all and always entertaining. You get a very nice insight of small-village England in the 1950s.
Truth be told, there are some inaccuracies in the portrayal of some Catholic rituals, but I doubt it would cause concern among the RC clergy... in fact I am inclined to think they would be rather pleased with the series as a whole.
