Vivian Foster was also as known "The Vicar of Mirth". Coming from a Church background (his father was a vicar) and having spent some time as a schoolmaster he became a specialist in the depiction of an unctuos clergyman. His catchphrase "Yes . . I think so" was often inserted in the most inappropriate places in his homilies.
A gentle form of comedy, this will much appeal to those who wondered what happened to the "old style" aloof and unworldly vicar.
