A Clerical Question.....

[Barrychuckle]

After welcoming our new member RevWev, it got me thinking about how many Vicars appear in the series, I estimate there must be about 30 or 40 episodes featuring them.

I'll start the ball rolling with The Secret Birthday of Norman Clegg, there is a vicar who Truly & Clegg meet in the hotel highlighting he's seen men with women 'who don't appear to be wives!'

Can you name an episode featuring a Priest/Vicar and the context they appear in?

 

[Roger]

The first one we see is in 'Of Funerals and Fish' having a smoke with Clegg behind the church.

 

[RickAns]

Jubilee, where the trio and Sid get a free ride on the HMS Dunkit float pulled by the Vicar's Mrs. on a tractor.

Can think of at least four more.

 

[Inky Batty]

The Three Astaires, where Foggy volunteers our intrepid heroes for a top hat and cane dance for the concert party.

 

[Electrical Entwistle]

A Short Introduction to Cooper's Rules. Where Vicar, Nicholas Smith ends up in the trunk of Barry's car.

Hey Big Vendor when that naughty vending machine interrupts the Vicar's speech at the Fete.

The Only Diesel Saxophone in Captivity where compo gives Marina a ride on the trolley . The vicar was expecting a special cleaner at the church !

 

[RickAns]

Brushes at Dawn the Vicar calls to Compo from the graveyard to carry some armor about.

Deep in the Heart of Yorkshire at the end where the trio dress as Indians to help out Sid who has dressed up like a cowboy.

 

[Inky Batty]

Greenfingers, where the lads tell the Vicar they are rescuing a wounded Chaffinch, when unhooking the giant, plastic Carrot.

 

[Roger]

Come Back Jack Harry Teasdale. We see the Vicar outside the church where the ladies take Pearl for her first church service.

 

[Inky Batty]

Go with the flow, when the lads go to the Vicarage to offer to help with selling tickets for the costume performance.

 

[Barrychuckle]

From memory I don't think you see a Vicar in Uncle Of The Bride, which is surprising, but I stand to be corrected?

 

[Barrychuckle]

Has Anyone Seen Barry's Midlife Crisis ? Barry sees the vicar for advice and ends up hearing a confession from the vicar about the church warden

 

[Inky Batty]

Dancing Feet, where Compo's herbal jelly melts in the Church and the Vicar is in the pulpit.

 

[RickAns]

Can't remember the episode title where the guys are at the church to see the vicar and the doorknob comes off in Clegg's hand.

 

[Inky Batty]

That was Jubilee

 

[RickAns]

Thanks, Inky. Completely missed that when I was focusing on the boat scene at the end.
