Rev S1 Ep1On Your Knees Forget the Fees

First broadcast: Mon 28th June 2010

Comedy centred on the daily frustrations and moral conflicts of the Rev Adam Smallbone. The priest struggles with a sudden influx of worshippers due to a rumour the local church school is to receive a glowing Ofsted report. As he deals with hypocritical parents vying for attention in the hope he will recommend their child, he is tempted to use the situation to secure the expensive restoration of a broken stained-glass window. With Tom Hollander, Lucy Liemann, Olivia Colman and Steve Evets, guest starring Alexander Armstrong (The Armstrong & Miller Show).

Episode 1.2

Rev S1 Ep2Salvation

First broadcast: Mon 5th July 2010

When the archdeacon tells Adam his collection plates are too light, salvation appears in the form of fellow priest Darren Betts.

Darren needs a temporary venue for services while his church is renovated, so Adam welcomes Darren and his huge congregation of young and fashionable evangelists with open arms. The union soon becomes a battle for hearts and minds as Darren refuses to leave Adam's church. There is tension at home too: Alex feels neglected and announces they need to rekindle their love life.

Darren Boyd guest stars as Darren Betts - the handsome evangelical vicar who has a hypnotic gaze, religious certainty, money and a crowd of young shiny worshippers.

Rev S1 Ep3Revolting

First broadcast: Mon 12th July 2010

Inspired by the clear moral stance he sees in the Islamic classes, Adam decides to take a stand himself and oppose a lapdancing club threatening to open opposite the school. But when he finds himself in one of the branches checking out pole dancers in the name of research, things get rather more complicated.

Adam's decision to allow a Muslim children's prayer group to use the church for classes brings his congregation's prejudices to light.

Episode 1.4

Rev S1 Ep4The One Show

First broadcast: Mon 19th July 2010

Hugh Bonneville guest stars as the character Roland Wise - the vicar who went to theological college with Adam. Hugely popular in the church - even with the hard-to-please Archdeacon - Roland is charming, fluent in several languages and is a regular on Thought For The Day, Question Time and Have I Got News for You. To Adam's humiliation, the Archdeacon insists that he consults his old rival for media training.

And, while Adam neglects his pastoral duties in favour of climbing the greasy pole, Colin looks for meaning outside of St Saviour's, swapping strong lager for other routes to oblivion in order to dabble in the Rastafarian religion.

Adam succumbs to envy when he hears an old rival on Thought For The Day. But his own attempts to make a career of his vocation spectacularly backfire. An ill-advised comment on The One Show about homosexuality within the Church results in orders from the Archdeacon to take media instruction from the very vicar Adam was trying to out-do.

Rev S1 Ep5Society

First broadcast:  Mon 26th July 2010

Adam makes friends with a man who's keen to get married at St Saviour's. The pair share pints in the local pub and even go jogging together... but the bromance comes to a crashing halt.

Tired of feeling excluded and derided by the rest of society, Adam is thrilled to meet Leon, who's keen to get married at St Saviour's.

Leon sees past the dog collar and a friendship develops, with the pair sharing pints in the local pub and even jogging together. However, the romance comes to a crashing halt at an embarrassing vicarage dinner party when Adam discovers that his wife, Alex, went to college with Leon - and that they had done something naughty in a rather surprising place.

Guest starring Colin Salmon as Leon.

Episode 1.6

Rev S1 Ep6Is The Answer Jesus, Sir?

First broadcast: Mon 2nd August 2010

After a terrible review of one of his sermons on a Christian website, Adam has a crisis of faith which, to Alex's surprise, seems more serious than his usual biannual episodes of doubt.

While he's at home experimenting with leaving the cloth by sitting in his pants watching daytime telly and gambling on the internet, someone else is going around the parish impersonating a vicar to get free beers and avoid parking tickets.

Adam's meltdown comes to a head when he drunkenly comes on to Ellie at a vicars and tarts party in aid of the school library - and Alex finally snaps.
