Father Brown

Father Brown is a main protagonist from G. K. Chesterton's novels with the same name and their TV show adaptations. In the 2013 TV show he's played by Mark Williams, who also played Arthur Weasley from Harry Potter film incarnation.
== Overview ==
Father Brown is a Catholic priest from a small English village who is also involved in solving crimes. His motivation is to save the soul of the guilty person, encourage him to repent and, thereby, save him from the torment of hell. The police are very disapproving of his investigations, especially since he usually surpasses them in the final results. In many of the stories, Father Brown is accompanied by his friend and assistant Hercule Flambeau, first a criminal and then a private detective. Father Brown's main method when investigating crimes is to put himself in the shoes of another person and imagine how (and for what reason) he himself would commit this or that crime; He succeeds in this even in relation to inveterate scoundrels thanks to Christian humility. Brown does not always seek to punish the criminal; often it is limited to teaching or confession. However, he still advises criminals to surrender to the police voluntarily, because the police usually suspect the wrong person. Father Brown motivates this by the fact that, in his opinion, a criminal should not want an innocent person to suffer.
== Personality ==
Father Brown is a kind-hearted priest who lives in the 1950s. He is ready to help everyone who turns to him. He also helps the police investigate crimes. To be even more precise, he does the main work for them. After all, as already said, the police always arrest the wrong person. This is especially evident in the 2013 series, where Inspector Mallory appears. Inspector Mallory is a very zealous and at times resourceful detective, willing to follow one version of the events of a crime to the end, even if it leads him to a dead end (although Father Brown often warns him about this). Father Brown also wants Flambeau to take the right path. One way or another, he succeeds.
