Mr. Brownlow A benevolent man and best friend of Edwin Leeford. Brownlow promises Edwin that he will look after Agnes and the unborn child if anything should happen to him. He is the executor of his will and makes it his business to seek out Edwin's child and to ensure that his best friend's wishes are fulfilled. Alan Bleasdale on Brownlow: "Along with Monks, Brownlow was one of the characters who fascinated me more than any others. I wanted him to be honorable, decent, generous and good-spirited and liberal for his times. He has no ulterior motive, which often makes people rather suspicious. He genuinely wants to do good and was very enjoyable to write. "
Michael Kitchen plays the charitable Mr. Brownlow. He has worked extensively in film, theatre and television, including many productions that have appeared on ExxonMobil Masterpiece Theatre over the years.
