hey kerry: i've only seen 'vicar' a few times. my lister friend heather and her husband fred are really into britcoms, and once when i visited them, fred had taped several hours on bbc america while we heard the remarkable dianne reeves on the new haven green. then we went home and watched, and the 'vicar' episode in particular was brilliant.
the best experience i ever had watching a britcom was when i convinced my dad and stepmom to watch an episode of 'keeping up appearances'. they loved the pretensions of hyacinth bucket (that's pronounced 'bouquet'). i don't have a lot of shared pleasures with my dad, so that was fun. patrick np - his name is alive - stars on e.s.p. >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of kerry >Sent: Monday, February 17, 2003 10:47 AM >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Joni mention on VOD > > >I was watching a re-run of Vicar of Dibley on PBS last night and >there was a >Joni reference.
