Fun original start but so many gay plots/characters gets boring and inaccurate for the era/setting

Really enjoyed the first few episodes - funny and great to see women take the lead - but later the series got boring with 2 episodes being about homosexuality, which is on every show these days. S2 has even more - which is excessive for the era and semi-rural setting. The same thing happened with Madame Blanc Mysteries - both series need to focus on the path they set up ie strong women not go off on a trendy tangent of gay men that many other dramas are already covering anyway. SBM does best when it focuses on the cultural things of the time eg Sound of Music / Blue Peter spoof etc - and of course Father Brown's cameo is great.
