* The ChristmasSpecial "The Tree of Truth" is full of these related to the ''Literature/{{Cinderella}}'' panto show that Kembleford is putting on:
** Father Brown auditions with a pretty terrible performance of Theatre/RichardIII. When he looks at the cast list, he and Sid, who just showed up on stage and didn't even audition, are both listed as "Bessie". They realize that they're stuck playing [[TwoMenOneDress a cow in a two-part costume]].
** Inspector Mallory and Sergeant Goodfellow get roped into the show as well. Mallory isn't happy about it, but is willing to grin and bear it, thinking they'll just be playing "[[BitCharacter Seventh and Eighth Villager]]". Instead, they get cast as [[CrossCastRole Cinderella's mean step-sisters]] and have to do a bunch of slapstick fighting on stage.
** During the actual show, Mallory and Goodfellow's scene has a bit of a slip-up when they mess up the choreography and Goodfellow accidentally punches Mallory for real, knocking him out for a moment so he has to be dragged off-stage.

However, detective inspector Collins seems to imply that the three men waiting outside just weren't practical men and didn't adhere to the facts, unlike himself.

* Last-Trick Todd's dinners in "The Mistake of the Machine".Machine" in its totality can count as this: Father Brown has a police inspector friend who uses the then-new method of psychometry (divinity) to locate a man in rags and oust him out as a recently escaped criminal who has murdered a visiting English aristocrat. It turns out the man is the aristocrat himself, who had dressed in rags to attend a masquerade ball. The mix-up extends to the criminal himself being mistaken for the aristocrat and going on a trip with a young lady.
