Summary

Four classic episodes from the original TV series: Arrival, Songs of Praise, Easter Special and The Christmas Lunch Incident. Welcome to Dibley, a perfect village full of some perfectly peculiar people - including Alice Tinker and her underactive brain, Owen Newitt and his overactive bowels, and Letitia Cropley and her orange cake with Branston pickle icing.

Council ruler David Horton has everything running exactly as he wishes - until 102-year-old Reverend Pottle dies. That's when the trouble begins, for the new vicar of Dibley is Geraldine, a babe with a bob and a magnificent bosom. In these instalments, the vicar increases the church-going public, finds something remarkably attractive about television, learns about suffering by giving up chocolate for Lent, and promises herself too many Christmas lunches with too many people.

Starring Dawn French, with Gary Waldhorn, James Fleet, Roger Lloyd Pack, Emma Chambers and Trevor Peacock.

Genuine classic of British Comedy

A lovely comedy based around the quirky inhabitants of the village of Dibley. The arrival of a female priest stirs up the once sleepy little village.

Comedy gold, however only if you've watched it!

One of the best British comedies ever written (thanks to Richard Curtis) and a fantastic cast led by Dawn French. Absolute comedy gold, but due to there being a fair bit of physical comedy, I'd only recommend this for those who have watched it on TV.

Not long enough

Absolutely love this show. But not enough episodes. Need more for the money you pay.
