The Black Sheep
A lighthearted comedy about an unconventional priest who solves crimes despite institutional disapproval, balancing humor with gentle warmth and period charm.
Father Brown starts solving crimes, much to the annoyance of his housekeeper, the police and especially his bishop, who is not amused by a priest playing detective.
