  • Rev. is a British television sitcom produced by Big Talk Productions. Written by actor Tom Hollander and James Wood, the show premiered on BBC Two on 28 June 2010 and ended on 28 April 2014. The show's working titles were The City Vicar and Handle with Prayer. The series revolves around a Church of England priest, played by Hollander, who becomes the vicar of an inner-city London church after leaving a small rural Suffolk parish. Hollander said: "we wanted to define ourselves in opposition to the cliché of a country vicar, partly because we wanted to depict England as it is now, rather than having a sort of bucolic-y, over the hills and far away, bird-tweeting England – we wanted the complications of the multi-cultural, multi-ethnic inner-city, where everything is much harder."

  • Mick has given up crack cocaine and to help him, Adam allows him to stay at the vicarage much to Alex's dismay and her plans to conceive a child involving sex with Adam at all times of the day. Nigel is concerned about balancing the church's finances before the archdeacon's audit and a desperate Adam steals £150 from an investment banker who is another drug addict. Guest stars Richard E. Grant (en)
  • With Alex's father staying, the pressures of Advent, cooking breakfast for the homeless, playing Father Christmas for Ellie's schoolchildren, the extra services and dealing with a drunken violent Colin, take their toll on Adam culminating in a disastrous Midnight Mass with a church congregation boosted by revellers from the local pubs and clubs. Christmas Day and Alex tells Adam she is pregnant and lunch at the church, a pastiche of the Last Supper, is a focal point for reconciliation. Stars Geoffrey Palmer. (en)
  • Controversial local artist Mike Tobin offers to make a £60,000 donation to St Saviour's, to display a new sculpture in the church, that would clear Adam's financial problems. Adam enlists headmistress Ellie Pattman, who is divorcing her husband, and the schoolchildren to help him in his campaign against litter louts, emotions run high and Adam kisses her. Adam's reaction to Tobin's sculpture, "Beyond Belief", loses the donation to the church when he misunderstands its meaning. (en)
  • Adam's mind is in crisis mode after an online Christian website review of his recent sermon gives it a poor rating, which leads to Adam doubting his faith. A housebound Adam soon succumbs to the pleasures of daytime television and online gambling. Whilst Adam is away, an imposter vicar tries to take over Adam's role to avoid the consequences of paying a parking ticket and buying a beer. Adam's meltdown hits a turn for the worse when he drunkenly flirts with Ellie. (en)
  • Adam is worried that the church school will fail its religious inspection and this puts him into conflict with Ellie, whose new teacher, Mr Feld, is an atheist whom Adam frets is undermining the school's Christian ethos. He has gone so far as to give a school assembly on Richard Dawkins's The Selfish Gene. The same teacher is a good footballer who turns out for the Catholics in an inter-denominational five-a-side tournament that the archdeacon has arranged. Adam is struggling to find players for his Anglican side that includes Alex, Nigel and Mick - but not Colin, who has become a Buddhist. (en)
  • Adam is envious after hearing an old rival of his, who is also a priest, on radio's Thought for the Day. Adam decides to speak on the television programme The One Show. However, after a controversial comment about homosexuality in the Church, the archdeacon steps in and demands Adam take media lessons from his rival. Meanwhile, Colin decides to seek God in the Rastafari religion. (en)
  • A Muslim children's prayer group is lent the church by Adam; however, the church's congregation is not supportive. Meanwhile, Adam decides to fight the opening of a lap-dancing club across from the school. He and headmistress Ellie Pattman attend another club for research which leads to an embarrassing meeting with one of Ellie's former pupils. Colin is arrested for assault of a thief stealing lead from the church roof. (en)
  • Following Adam's recent moments of feeling excluded by people, he is excited to meet Leon, a young man who wants to marry at his church. The two soon become friends and start to do a range of activities together. However, the friendship turns sour after a dinner party where Adam discovers his wife Alex and Leon attended the same college and shared a one night stand together, much to Adam's disgust. (en)
  • Adam believes a new parishioner, George , a City of London accountant, can balance the church books for the forthcoming audit but the man was recently released from prison for possessing child abuse images. Alex discovers about Adam and Ellie's kiss and throws him out, leaving him to stay at Nigel's flat and Colin's hostel. Adam's plea for George to be taken on as church treasurer receives a hostile reception from the Parochial church council, Nigel, Colin and Adoha. (en)
  • Holy Week is approaching and Nigel has reported Adam for unprofessional conduct with headmistress Ellie Pattman. The Bishop of London suspends Adam from his pastoral duties and asks Archdeacon Robert to conduct a small investigation with all the parties involved. The area dean and diocesan secretary begin planning the closure of Adam's church as wild exaggerations spread to the local press and he is unable to conceal his suspension from Alex. The neighbouring church want to borrow a large heavy cross for a procession and Adam carries it through the streets at night, suffering abuse as he goes. Colin denies knowing him three times. In the morning, after a mysterious encounter on a hill with a stranger , Adam tenders his resignation and the church is boarded up. (en)
  • Adam is plagued with nightmares, compounded by his difficult seven-year-old goddaughter, Enid, whom he and Alex are looking after. Enid's bad behaviour lead both to have misgivings about having a child of their own. A house blessing for an elderly resident of a care home is mistaken for an exorcism. A toilet for the church is thwarted by English Heritage. Stars Sylvia Syms. (en)
  • Following his resignation and the church's closure Adam becomes a house husband and works part time at the local convenience store while applying for other jobs. Broken hearted Adam retires to bed until Alex organises a reunion of Adam's parishioners for an Easter Day service and the baptism of his daughter Katie in the closed church. (en)
  • Alex feels threatened by Abi Johnston, a talented young curate who comes to train under Adam at St Saviour's until she realises that she and Adam can spend the weekend together. Spying on Abi taking a service, Adam begins to doubt his own abilities as a priest until Colin, who has been shooting ecstasy-eating squirrels in the churchyard, decides to cheer Adam up with his own special home brew. (en)
  • Archdeacon Robert convinces the reluctant Adam to enroll in a course in the hope of finding out how to rescue St Saviour's from closure, but struggles with leader Roland Wise's approach to ministry. Two of Adam's friends, Jez and Rob, ask him to carry out their marriage ceremony which is against the Church of England's position on gay marriage and he agrees only to give them a blessing following the Wednesday Eucharist service and nearly falls foul of canon law. (en)
  • Advancement in the Church of England is a devious business for Nigel, who wants to be a priest, and Archdeacon Robert a bishop. Adam's marriage to Alex is in doubt when she takes a weekend walking holiday in Shropshire with friends because church business is taking all of Adam's time. Stars James Purefoy and Sylvia Syms. (en)
  • The archdeacon tells Adam that the monetary offering from his church is too small. Needing more generous people, Adam loans priest Darren Betts the church for his services as Darren's church is undergoing renovations. However, a problem erupts when Darren will not leave after the hard work he put in updating Adam's church. Meanwhile, Alex feels lonely and decides they need to reignite the flame of their love life.
