Buy This Item The Vicar of Dibley - A Holy Wholly Happy Ending by BBC Video  Available from Amazon  $14.99  on 9-21-2008     The popular British comedy series <I>The Vicar of Dibley</I> is about as broad in its laughs as any Britcom, yet its heart is even bigger--no surprise since one of its key writers is Richard Curtis (<I>Love, Actually</I>, <I>Four Weddings and a Funeral</I>) In <I>A Holy Wholly Happy Ending</I>, the plucky heroine, The Rev. Geraldine Granger (the appealing Dawn French), balances trying to invigorate the residents of her tiny rural village with an art class and book club, while grumbling about the "townies" from London snapping up the houses and draining the character from the place. But the longtime singleton ("always the vicar," she sighs, "never the bride") may change her tune when a handsome townie moves in and commences getting acquainted.<p> French's determinedly cheery persona is a lot of the appeal of this series, and that our sweet Reverend might find true love at last makes this two-part special extra appealing. The side humor is a trademark as well. The looks on the faces of the (all-male) art class when the first session, figure sketching, begins with the model taking off her robe may be foreseeable, but it's still nothing short of hilarious. As Geraldine would say, "let joy be unconfined!" --<I>A.T. Hurley</I> Reader Reviews The BEST Vicar of Dibley yet! Superbly written, directed and acted! Dawn French at her unbelievable best!! Don't let this one get away!!
