Dawn French Returns for Christmas as 'The Vicar of Dibley in Lockdown'

In these challenging times, we’re all looking for something to top up our depleted reserves of joy and laughter. So this Christmas season, Dawn French is doing her part by reprising her role as Geraldine Grainger in a trio of short episodes called The Vicar of Dibley in Lockdown.

“Back in the dog collar, back in Dibley, and back on your telly at Xmas," French said in a statement. "I couldn’t be happier. Bless you.”

Vicar of Dibley creator Richard Curtis also chimed in, “Like every village in the country, there’s been a lot happening in Dibley this year – and Dawn has got a lot to say about it.”
