As the newly appointed vicar of Helmsley, David is looking forward to working in this picturesque market town in the beautiful Yorkshire countryside. Admittedly, the vicarage - which dates back to the twelfth century - is extremely cold and damp. And not all of his parishioners are impressed by his new-fangled ways. But with the help of the irrepressible Father Bert, a retired cleric and one-time tail-end Charlie, David sets about winning over the townsfolk. There's Lord Feversham, the local landowner who at times bears an unnerving resemblance to Henry VIII; fiery Ted, a retired chef who fought with the Polish Free Army; Frank, the singing shepherd, still working as he approaches eighty; and redoubtable countrywoman Eva, a font of wisdom - and all have stories of hardship and sacrifice, friendship and love.
