Who plays the Vicar in The Larkins on ITV1?
Peter Davison stars as the Vicar in The Larkins.
The character is a sweary vicar who likes to gossip, have a drink, and even enjoys the odd ciggie!
In fact, in episode two, the Vicar takes part in a village pram race with a lit cigarette dangling dangerously from his lips.
He’s lacking in loyalty of any kind (not even to God), but very much part of the furniture in The Larkins.
And, understandably, the viewers love him!
