Review of Mystery!: Cadfael

We have watched this series a few times as we bought all the DVDs. Virgin in the Ice is our favourite and one to be watched on a very cold winter's day. There are knights recently returned from the Middle East, some of which have turned bad, together with a 'bastard' good knight. There are two Queen Maud fugitives being chased by some of the nastier knights. There is even a frozen body to be thawed out. A monk is under threat. The new Sheriff Hugh Beringar is the best of the three people who get to play this part. Brother Jerome is typically awful while the new Abbott is worldly wise. If you could only watch one episode of this special medieval whodunit set in and around an Abbey let it is this. We always light a roaring fire to go with it!
