Question: can somebody give a source of Father Brown being a Jesuit (SJ)? I can't remember anything like that from the stories (I only have got a German translation, but a quite good one). --62.227.44.202 16:42, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I would be very interested, too, where the SJ came from. --Wittkowsky 19:17, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

shouldn't this irrelevant alec-guiness-stuff be removed?

Please. Sign. Comments. I don't think it should be removed, per se; it is tangentially related to the subject, but I'm not sure "Influences" is an appropriate section title, since Guinness was influenced by the boy's trust in the symbols of the RCC, not by the Fr. Brown character. Maybe "Trivia" would be a better section title, or the anecdote could be merged with the bullet point for the 1954 film, under "Father Brown in other media".

One of the books appears on the World Wide School site (and other volumes, if people wish to link as appropriate).

Some of the casual references to racial groups in some of the FB stories would not now be regarded as in good taste.
