I find the braided phone handset cords absolutely fascinating (and they seem to spend an unusual amount of time zooming on them)!

I see there's a new spinoff starring Sister Boniface: the winemaking nun (with a PhD in Forensics science) from season one of Father Brown, but I've no idea if it's any good, nor how many seasons it might be around. Looks like at least two.
