Description: "More TV Vicar? gets under the dog collar of the claim that Christians are misrepresented on popular television. Bryony Taylor examines many well-known characters - including Dot Cotton, Father Ted, Rev.'s Adam Smallbone, The Vicar of Dibley's Geraldine Granger and Rowan Atkinson's various clerical roles - and asks what deeper message underlies each portrayal and how Christians should respond"--Back cover.
