Total and Complete Travesty

 I have just finished watching two episodes of the BBC Father Brown.

There is nothing good to say of it. To proceed from most fundamental to less so:

1. The scriptwriters show no signs of having read Chesterton.
2. The plots are unrecognizable.
3. There is no Chestertonian paradox; none of Chesterton's style; no theology.
4. Where is Flambeau?
5. Why is an RC priest shown in a chasuble, about to celebrate a nuptial mass in the 1950s, without a biretta?
6. Why is a RC priest shown wearing a surplice and black scarf?
7. He is neither short enough nor plump enough. 

ETA: Also, he didn't pick locks, and would not have said things like "Let's get down to this".
