Our Man at St Marks
This
sitcom featured first Leslie Phillips as the Reverend Andrew
Parker, and then Donald Sinden as the Reverend Stephen
Young.
The series followed the exploits of the youthful vicars at St
Mark's church in the rural parish of the village of Felgate (the
location used for the series was really Denham Village,
Buckinghamshire).
Joan Hickson played the vicar's housekeeper Mrs Pace, and Anne
Lawson played Parker's girlfriend in the first (Leslie Phillips)
season.
The second season saw the introduction of Harry Fowler as
reformed crook, Harry the yo-yo (so named because he was in and
out of jail all the time).
For the fourth season, Stephen Young moved from Felgate to
Lynchester where he was promoted to Archdeacon. The series title
was subtly changed to Our Man From St Mark's.
