Watching reruns of Doctor Who ( "The Age of Steel") in preparation for the 2008 Christams special I noticed that their creator, " John Lumic" looked somewhat familiar and sounded very familiar. Turns out he was played by Roger Lloyd Pack who after a bit of searching *was* familiar because he was Owen Newitt on The Vicar of Dibley as well as Barty Crouch, Sr. in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (making him David Tennant's on-screen father.)

Oddly, this showed up as a headline in today's Daily Mail, "Vicar of Dibley could return to TV screens as a bishop, Dawn French reveals." The Vicar of Dibley could be making a return to our TV screens - as a woman bishop. Dawn French told an audience at Cheltenham Literature Festival that she believes writer Richard Curtis has a new series about her best-loved character up his sleeve, despite the show (currently) having ended with Geraldine's wedding.
