| book description |

Andrew Sachs stars as G.K. Chesterton's crime-solving cleric, whose unlikely methods make him one of the great heroes of the Golden Age of Detective Fiction With his black hat, huge umbrella, unworldly simplicity and 'beaming but breathless geniality', Father Brown is one of fiction's best-loved amateur detectives. Short and tatty, but with the wisdom and insight to unravel the most wayward of criminal minds, he has entertained generations. In this collection of 13 full-cast dramatisations, the High Priest of detection becomes involved in seven intriguing cases that will tax even his mental powers to the limit. The episodes are: The Blue Cross The Queer Feet The Eye of Apollo The Invisible Man The Honour of Israel Gow The Hammer of God The Sins of Prince Saradine The Perishing of the Pendragons The Arrow of Heaven The Mistake of the Machine The Curse of the Golden Cross Actor and Alibi The Absence of Mr Glass Also included in this collection is a bonus documentary programme, The Mystery of Father Brown, in which Ann Widdecombe explores the enduring impact of the shambolic priest, and looks into the life of his creator G.K. Chesterton. Dramatised by John Scotney and produced by Alec Reid.
