Rev


I can't. It's a calling, isn't it? I can't be uncalled for the day. Anyway, I've gotta go and do school assembly for Ellie and get cross-examined by a whole load of atheist 9-year-olds.

- Rev. Adam Smallbone

***********

I tend to find congregations prefer Corn Flakes to Museli, theologically speaking.

- The Archdeacon

Just some of the choice moments in the BBC2 show Rev., which is about the life of an inner city vicar struggling to find meaning in his vocation. That premise won't appeal to most, but if it does then you're in for a treat, because Rev is refreshingly honest, perceptive, and genuinely funny. It's also strangely uplifting, but that's another post for another day.
