Question about `The Bride of Christ` episode


Who pushed the nosy nun down the stairs? This was never resolved in the episode.


**Spoilers**


The actual killer of the two nuns couldn`t have done it, or she would surely have confessed when she was confessing the murders to Father Brown. Also, she didn`t really want anyone else to get hurt.

The nun who was protective of the mother superior doesn`t seem to have done it either, she only went as far as to steal Sister Paul`s letter to the Bishop.

So, whodunnit? From the brief glimpse you got of the `pusher` it seemed to be a nun, they were definitely wearing an oversized cross, and their hands seemed feminine.



We all go a little mad sometimes.

The husband

I can't see what motive he'd have at that point. Surely he isn't aware at that point that Sister Boniface knows anything that would endanger his wife.

yes, that wasn't explained. i was looking out for the reveal but it never happened

Spoiler alert









it was the wife, not her husband. Goes back to St Bridget's, a home for unmarried mothers.
