Review of The Missing Man

The episode for sure has a lot of goofs, but i don't expect 100% accuracy from tv dramas ever. SPOILER: i was shocked to see the , albeit little, representation of the lgbtq+ community. it was never made clear if the victim was trans or a drag queen but seeing as they had to disappear from their family i suppose it's the first. i was even more surprised to see how father brown seemed to encourage acceptance but also understanding of the times they're living in. wouldn't expect a catholic priest in the mid 1900s to be that open minded honestly, but i suppose the writers wanted the episode to go over well with a more open minded current day audience. either way this episode really warmed my heart and i loved the unnecessary aircraft flight scene. i felt for the daughter and it was a very well written story in my eyes, although rushed and absurd at times.
