tree_and_leafThere are some clips up at the BBC - I think this one of Adam in a taxi with the Archdeacon is my favourite, because it's so good on the reality of urban ministry*, but I am also thrilled to note that Hugh Bonneville is in episode one. The clips are possibly spoilery, but I don't think most people watch Rev for the gripping plot twists...
The Church Times has a piece on Rev this week; it's still behind the paywall, though. However, it promises us a high-achieving female curate (yay!) for Adam, and stuff about Adam's family, including his atheist father.
Also, there is the revelation that the Archdeacon is gay (and wants to be a bishop).
* OK, Archdeacons don't ride about in taxis being sinister while wearing black leather gloves, but, as some bishop who wished to remain anonymous told the Church Times, it feels like they do. I also keep confusing the guy who plays the Archdeacon with Martin Freeman, but he's actually Simon McBurney.
