Season 1, Episode 2
A sober mystery, buy entertaining enough.
25 April 2022
The Brothers offer sanctuary to a young man accused of committing a brutal attack, an an angry mob hunt him, Cadfael attempts to learn the truth.

Great start wine very dramatic opening sequences, designed to grab your attention. I found the core of this one a little hard to follow at times. Pacing was fair, it did lull a little in the middle, the ending did make up for it however.

I did like the twist, the revelation of the killer did come as a real surprise to me.

What was done, was done very well, wonderful production values, it looks amazing. Some wonderful acting, Fiona Gillies was great, once again I enjoyed the more nature cast members, really enjoyed Roy Barraclough and Rosalie Crutchley, a young Steven Mackintosh was very good.

A little slow, but well made and watchable, 7/10.
