Smuggling Stories

[Rosie29]

I remember - a long way back - enjoying a series of stories about smuggling - possibly off the Kent coast. There was a central character - male - respected member of the community. It wasn't Father Brown was it?

NO. He wouldn't be involved in law breaking.
It's the Rev Dr Christopher Syn you're looking for.

Of course - Thanks SandyRoe

it used to be a condition of taking the curacy of Dymchurch that one had to agree to act out Dr Syn fantasies when and where the village tradition required.

no pompous pi refusal tolerated.....

anyway thats what they said
