Andrew Sachs stars as the famous clerical sleuth in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation.
With his black hat, huge umbrella, unwordly 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 'The Honour of Israel Gow', Father Brown and Flambeau investigate the death of a nobleman. What is the significance of the loose piles of snuff, scattered precious stones and candles without any candlesticks?
Dramatised by John Scotney and produced by Alec Reid.
