Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the Vicar's surname?

Answer: Granger

Geraldine( Dawn French) arrives in the village of Dibley to replace the old vicar who died at his post, and the Chairman of the Parish, David Houghton, is upset about the fact that the new vicar is a woman.

2. What happens to the old Vicar?

Answer: he died in the middle of a service

Alice Tinker was the first to realise that he was dead, and led the congregation in a hymn to finish the service. The next we see is the discussion about a new vicar at the PCC (Parish Church Council).

3. Which famous television programme is broadcast from Dibley?

Answer: Songs of Praise

And, of course, it does not go according to plan.

4. Which famous singer opens the Autumn Fayre?

Answer: Kylie Minogue

Geraldine thought that Elton John was coming, having booked Reginald Dwight to appear. Kylie showed up on her doorstep on the day of the Fayre looking for Elton and Geraldine persuaded her to appear instead.

5. What happens to the window in the church?

Answer: a tree goes through it

There is a wonderful PCC scene where a long discussion takes place about the Big Storm and the Big Wind and so forth. Marvellous scripting.

6. Who is David's opposition at the election?

Answer: Geraldine

When Geraldine asked Alice who she voted for at the last election, she was told that she definitely did not want the Conservatives to win, so she put a big cross by that name!

7. How does Geraldine describe Mrs Cropley with regard to her cooking?

Answer: the Queen of 'Cordon Blugh'!

Mrs Cropley would make up the most interesting concoctions in her cooking, and in her flower arranging. It was not unusual to have a ham sandwich flavoured with lemon curd, or to find a pineapple placed squarely in the centre of an arrangement of carnations at a funeral.

8. In "The Christmas Lunch Incident" episode Geraldine eats four Christmas Dinners. When she goes to Frank's house, how many different vegetables are served?

Answer: 16

...and then she has a sprout-eating competition with David. Also on the menu that day is tripe from Owen and a full dinner from Alice.

9. Who does the Vicar have a crush on in the "Autumn" episode?

Answer: Simon Horton

This episode includes the very funny scene where she and Simon are splashing in puddles along a country path. When Geraldine jumps into a puddle to splash she goes in down to her waist!

10. Geraldine tells a joke to Alice at the end of every episode, and usually has to explain herself. At the end of the episode which sees Alice marry Hugo, she still tells a joke, but to whom?

Answer: David

She is about to explain it, and realises that David got the joke.

11. After Geraldine broke up with her boyfriend, another person took over the services. Who was this?

Answer: Frank

12. Who proposes to, and is accepted by, the Vicar in the "Spring" episode?

Answer: David

Geraldine finds herself unable to go through with the ceremony because she realises that she does not love him.

13. Who are the God-Grandparents for baby Geraldine?

Answer: Frank and Jim

14. Who else proposes to the Vicar, but is not accepted?

Answer: Owen

Owen had carried a torch for Geraldine from the very beginning.

Answer: half brother and half sister

Thankfully, when Geraldine pushes the subject, she finds that Alice and Hugo are actually cousins, and legally able to marry after all.
