Following the proposal at the end of season 11, Kembleford becomes abuzz as wedding plans get underway, but a surprise visit from the father of the groom quickly throws everything into turmoil.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Williams, returning cast members include Tom Chambers, Claudie Blakley, Ruby-May Martinwood and John Burton.<\/p>\n<p><em>Father Brown<\/em> first aired on BBC Daytime in 2013. Its 11th season recently concluded on screen and averaged 2.5 million viewers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we start the 12th season of <em>Father Brown<\/em>, I feel like I\u2019m starting to get to know him,\u201d Williams said. \u201cHe\u2019s a mysterious sort of bloke, the sort of person who you can never predict other than knowing he won\u2019t do what you expect. The best thing about playing the character is that I am never, ever bored by him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Father Brown<\/em> is a real favorite with Daytime and iPlayer viewers, so we couldn\u2019t be more excited to commission both series 12 and 13 together, giving audiences another two years of new episodes to look forward to, and underlining our continued commitment to commissioning drama in the Midlands,\u201d commented Rob Unsworth, head of BBC daytime and early peak commissioning.<\/p>\n<p>Neil Irvine, executive producer for BBC Studios Drama Productions, added, \u201cI\u2019m delighted that <em>Father Brown<\/em> will be cycling back onto our screens for a further two series. The show has an enduring magic which has captured the imagination of viewers across the globe\u2014a testament to Mark\u2019s magnetic performance, compelling storytelling and our talented Midlands crew. Series 12 will introduce Father Brown\u2019s biggest fan, amateur playwright Father Lindsey and a deadly new nemesis, alongside the return of some old favorites.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BBC One has ordered 12th and 13th seasons of its hit crime drama Father Brown, produced by BBC Studios Drama Productions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":20656,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[201,4771,2547,8914,8144,6967,8915],"class_list":["post-20655","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-bbc-one","tag-bbc-studios-drama-productions","tag-father-brown","tag-gk-chesterton","tag-mark-williams","tag-neil-irvine","tag-rob-unsworth","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BBC One Gives Father Brown Two-Season Renewal - TVDRAMA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/bbc-one-gives-father-brown-two-season-renewal\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"BBC One Gives Father Brown Two-Season Renewal - TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"BBC One has ordered 12th and 13th seasons of its hit crime drama Father Brown, produced by BBC Studios Drama Productions.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/bbc-one-gives-father-brown-two-season-renewal\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-04-22T14:36:12+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-04-22T14:36:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/04\/BBCOne-FatherBrown-0424.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"394\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/bbc-one-gives-father-brown-two-season-renewal\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/bbc-one-gives-father-brown-two-season-renewal\/\",\"name\":\"BBC One Gives Father Brown Two-Season Renewal - TVDRAMA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-04-22T14:36:12+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-04-22T14:36:15+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/bbc-one-gives-father-brown-two-season-renewal\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/bbc-one-gives-father-brown-two-season-renewal\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/bbc-one-gives-father-brown-two-season-renewal\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"BBC One Gives Father Brown Two-Season Renewal\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\",\"name\":\"TVDRAMA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
