Rev

[knickernicker]

I just realised- the old grey haired bloke in the restaurant was the boy from Press Gang. I am old!

Dexter fletcher. Also of Bugsy Malone and Lock Stock amongst other things!

Difficult episode tonight...

[RufusTheReindeer]

I had to hide behind my hands at the statue unveiling, I was just so embarrassed for Adam

[JohnBarleycorn]

This week's episode just felt stressy. Think I'm going off Rev. Poor bloke never seems to get a break.

I've loved the series so far but tonights episode was quite uncomfortable viewing I thought. Seems a shame and I hope this is just a blip.

I thought that the first two episodes of this seies were a bit lame, I loved this weeks! Hilarious although was a bit cringey at times. I really relate as my Dad is a vicar and it is very well researched. Inner city ministry is bloody hard work!

[ThreeLannistersOneTargaryen]

I thought this was supposed to be a comedy. The scene between Alex & Adam at the beginning of this episode was a bit fraught.

[ThreeLannistersOneTargaryen]

And now the subject of child pornography. It's still a great programme, but more serious than it used to be.

[cricketpitch]

I used to like it - a gentle comedy with a little bit of social observation and a likeable central character but this series has been a disappointment. I turned it off as I wasn't in the mood to hear the child porn storyline or to listen to adam and his wife arguing.

It seems to have changed and I don't really know what it is now.

[jaynebxl]

I agree. Adam is a bit less likeable, his relationship with Alex is a bit less happy, it all feels a bit darker and less appealing.

[yummymumtobe]

The beauty of Rev is that he is a real human being, with believable traits. Not just a one dimensional sweet vicar. I agree that is was slightly heavier this episode and has changed direction slightly and I did probably prefer the laugh out loud episodes, but it's still good. It was never just a pure comedy sure - it was always a bit more layered as its about real people and faith.

[2whippetsnobed]

Definitely agree to it becoming darker this series. Although this makes it more real but not as comforting - especially the Alex and Adam marriage.

I will keep watching though.

[jaynebxl]

Can't believe they had Liam Neeson tonight!

[Shartibartfast]

I thought tonight's episode was fantastic - deep and thought provoking for Easter. Tom Holland is a great actor!

[Davros]

We thought tonight's episode was utterly brilliant and we did laugh in some of it. My only complaint is that Mick hasn't been in it for two weeks, I love him

[PansBigChainring]

This was excellent! Neeson as God and Colin as St Peter, and the Bishop as Pontius Pilot. Shame that non-one was on hand to help him carry the cross as he made his way. I just wished it was an hour long special. Lots of the analogies broke down, but to squeeze so much in such a short space was really good scripting. And yes, fantastic with LM as a dancing chav with a beer in hand first thing in the morning was fab.

[iK8AllTheEggs]

Isn't the Bishop played by Ralph Fiennes? Very funny episode tonight

Loved prissy Nigel.

[drxerox]

Is this the end of the series, or is there one next week?

Looks like it closes but hopefully something good will come out of it.

God will provide....

[PansBigChainring]

or do a 'calendar'.
Robert is an odd character but I think he will have a hand in the story. And the baby.
