Father Brown season 5 episode 1, titled "The Star of Jacob," follows the honorable parish priest as he solves yet another mysterious case in his small town. In this episode, a priceless artifact, the Star of Jacob, goes missing from a family's possession, and all eyes turn to the new family member, who has been missing for years and only recently returned to the fold.

As Father Brown investigates the case, he unravels a layered and complex web of family dynamics, greed, and secrets. He navigates through the suspects, including the matriarch of the family, her two sons, and their possible motives for stealing the Star of Jacob. The priest must dig deep into the family's history to understand the significance of the artifact and its value to the family's lineage.

In addition to the family drama, the episode also includes a heartwarming subplot. A group of prisoners carrying out community service under Father Brown's watchful eye provide comic relief as they attempt to prepare for a nativity play for the church's Christmas celebration. The scene provides a glimpse into the lives of prisoners and shows how Father Brown is committed to helping those who are often marginalized in society.

Throughout the episode, Father Brown relies on his wit, wisdom, and vast knowledge of human nature to solve the case. His clever and unexpected solutions to each clue keep the audience engaged, and his compassion and caring nature towards the residents of his town show why he is such a well-loved character.

Overall, "The Star of Jacob" is an engaging episode that showcases not only Father Brown's investigative skills but also his kind and empathetic nature. The episode is a reminder that, even in seemingly small and close-knit communities, people can still harbor secrets, and it takes someone like Father Brown to bring them to light.
