Father Brown (Mark Williams) cycles back on screen to solve more mysteries in the sleepy Cotswold village of Kembleford in this charming series based on the short stories by G K Chesterton. Each episode sees the inimitable priest investigate a crime in his own particular way, using intuition and psychology. In this series a Duke and Duchess visit the village at Christmas time, but the community is thrown into chaos when the couple's baby boy goes missing. When a female author is murdered, Father Brown turns to her novels for guidance. And when a boxer is found dead in suspicious circumstances, Father Brown uncovers a well-planned betting sting. It's a story full of deceit and betrayal, but who has been playing whom? According to an Amazon.com pre-order listing, BBC Home Entertainment has scheduled a December 12th general retail street date for Father Brown - Season 5. English subtitles are included, and it's priced at $39.99 SRP for a 3-disc set (per the BBC's information, although the cover art actually says "2 Disc Set" instead). However, you can receive Father Brown - Season 5 on DVD much quicker, if you pre-order it from the studio's own BBC Shop online store. There it's discounted to $31.98 (as of this writing), and it's available beginning August 1st...four months early! Here's the cover art, underneath pre-order button links for both Amazon and the BBC Shop:
