A Priest! A Jockey! A Mystery! Bridie Murphy opens Bridie’s Boutique B&B, much to her husband Willie’s bewilderment! “This is a B&B which has to be seen to be believed!! – Tripadvisor” With their young, confused neighbour, Dick, having some family problems, Bridie steps in to help! There’s only one thing for it! Bring in the Priest! Which only serves to make things even more confusing!!
