Richard Curtis and Dawn French revisit Dibley for UKTV

Comedy channel Gold is to take a reflective look at one of Britain’s most-loved comic creations in The Vicar of Dibley: Inside Out. The UKTV Original retrospective is produced by Expectation and will air later this year.

“It was a total treat to revisit such a happy place and time for this documentary. Part of my heart is still, and forever will be in Dibley.” – Dawn French, who played Geraldine Granger in The Vicar of Dibley

The Vicar of Dibley: Inside Out will take viewers on a joyous trip down memory lane and reveal what went on behind the scenes of the highly successful sitcom and share exclusive, never-before-seen footage from rehearsals.

Dawn French and Richard Curtis will be joined by writer Paul Mayhew-Archer, producer Jon Plowman, James Fleet (who played Hugo Horton) and guest stars including Kylie, Hugh Bonneville, Joanna Lumley and many more, as they lovingly look back at their favourite Dibley moments.

“I feel incredibly proud to have been involved with Dibley and am thrilled that it’s still making audiences laugh (and occasionally cry) more than 25 years later. It’s been a total joy to look back through the Dibley archives and to be reminded of old friends and so many wonderful moments. It looks to me like we were all having far too much fun. Quite how we got anything done is beyond me.” – Executive Producer of The Vicar of Dibley: Inside Out, Jon Plowman, who was also the Producer of The Vicar of Dibley.

The Vicar of Dibley: Inside Out will air later this year on Gold.
