A primary take a look at the highly-anticipated (and extremely wanted) return of The Vicar of Dibley has been unveiled as Geraldine Granger is again on screens in time for Christmas.
Dawn French confirmed she was digging out those robes for one more outing earlier this week, because the beloved sitcom makes a comeback with three 10 minute episodes which is able to ultimately culminate into one 30 minute instalment over Christmas.
Now the BBC has launched its first picture from The Vicar of Dibley’s return, with Geraldine poised with a beaming smile alongside Hugo Horton (James Fleet).
Following the loss of life of actress Emma Chambers in 2018, who starred because the lovably ludicrous Alice Tinker, Hugo’s drippy spouse will still be ‘incredibly present’ within the upcoming mini episodes.
‘Throughout lockdown, put up lockdown and pre-another-lockdown, Geraldine has been writing and delivering month-to-month sermons to her parishioners by way of Zoom…when she will make it work,’ teased a BBC synopsis.
‘These new ideas on life (and chocolate) will air after repeat showings of basic episodes of the multi-award profitable The Vicar of Dibley, this Christmas on BBC One.’

‘Again within the canine collar, again in Dibley and again in your telly at Xmas,’ Daybreak enthused. ‘I couldn’t be happier. Bless you.’
Producer Richard Curtis added: ‘Like each village within the nation, there’s been loads occurring in Dibley this 12 months – and Daybreak has received loads to say about it.’
The Vicar of Dibley initially ran on BBC One from 10 November 1994 to 22 January 1998, after which from 24 December 1999 to 1 January 2007.
It’s set in a fictional small Oxfordshire village known as Dibley, which is assigned a feminine vicar following the 1992 adjustments within the Church of England that permitted the ordination of girls.
The Vicar of Dibley in lockdown involves BBC One later this 12 months.
