The first three series of the BBC sitcom set in and around a struggling London church. Tom Hollander stars as Reverend Adam Smallbone, a Church of England vicar who is promoted from a sleepy rural parish to the failing inner-city church of St Saviour's in East London. As he struggles to contend with the complex moral conundrums of his urban parishioners as well as a dilapidated church and a dwindling congregation, his long-suffering wife Alex (Olivia Colman) does her best to support him - but, far from being a conventional vicar's wife, she has her own career as a solicitor to worry about.
