Mr Pye - Season 1 Episode 1 Preparing the Way
An enigmatic stranger called Mr Pye arrives on the Isle of Sark. Having arranged to stay with the formidable Miss Dredger, he starts on the wrong foot by inviting Miss George, a loathed neighbour of hers, to ride with them in the horse and carriage.
As he gets to know the other residents, such as the lovelorn artist Thorpe and free spirited Tanty, he begins to take over the running of Dredger's home, much to her annoyance. But as she gets to warm to Pye, she inquires why he has come to the island, and it is then that he tells her of his plans to convert the heathen islanders to the love of who he calls 'Pal'.
