This Morning’s Phillip Schofield made a brutal dig at a Cornish town after it ruled against a woman becoming its next priest, despite once being home to TV sensation Vicar of Dibley.
Fowey in Cornwall was the home of Reverend Geraldine Granger in the BBC sitcom, starring Dawn French.
Yet the town’s church St Fimbarrus has been barred from being helmed by a woman in Geraldine’s stead as some congregation members said they would quit unless it was run by a man.
