SISTER BONIFACE MYSTERIES

FRIDAY, 9PM, DRAMA DRAMA

Robert Daws finds himself on a sticky wicket in this week's instalment of Drama's popular 1960s-set whodunnit Sister Boniface Mysteries.

The plot centres on a crunch match for the Great Slaughter cricket club, of which his much-loved character, Chief Constable Hector Lowsley, is the chairman.

TV Times caught up with Robert, 65, who starred in ITV's The Royal with his wife Amy Robbins, for tea, cake and a team talk in the pavilion...

This week's episode is all about cricket. Do you play?
