Cadfael is a fascinating British video series about a mystery solving, crime-fighting monk called Brother Cadfael (Derek Jacobi). Cadfael is a Welsh monk living in medieval Britain who has a knack for solving criminal mysteries. Before becoming a monk, he was a soldier and a sailor, and has retained much of the worldly knowledge he learned before entering the monastery. Cadfael is also a shrewd observer of humanity, and can deal effectively with people of many personalities, religions, and ethnicities. It is precisely this versatility and keen intellect that allows Brother Cadfael to solve many of the mysteries with which he is confronted over the course of the series. Many of the episodes involve crimes committed as a result of the tensions between the British King Stephen and Empress Maud; others focus on tensions between Britain and Wales. Many of the events depicted or mentioned in Cadfael are real historical events; however, the series is otherwise a work of fiction.MORE
