Featured review
The return of Flambeau.
Flambeau is back in Kembleford, seeking Father Brown's help, another thief if is beating him two other ill gotten gains. Flambeau's daughter Marianne has also arrived in town, with a challenge for her father.
I thoroughly enjoyed this episode, it was hugely entertaining, clever and funny. We're normally treated to The Flambeau episode later in the series, but I guess that formula was getting predictable, so he's in early.
Flambeau's presence always adds something to an episode, this one's no exception, he's great, as is the return of Marianne.
Sure you need to suspend belief, to think of Father Brown aiding a renowned thief, but I suppose there is is the chance for him to save somebody at the end of the challenge.
Overall this has been a very unique episode, I cannot think of one such similar encounter for Father Brown.
Great fun. 8/10
