Trade ReviewI am not at all religious (I thought) but Three Vicars Talking on @BBCRadio4 was beautiful. -- Bryony Gordon on Twitter
There are no preens here. Each seems genuinely engaged with the others’ experiences. All are funny, wise, thoughtful, occasionally confessional. They listen to each other. There is even the odd pearl of wisdom . . . This is good stuff . . . The clever producer is Christine Morgan. -- Gillian Reynolds, The Sunday Times
Three Vicars Talking is a meditation on priesthood, wrapped up as a stocking filler . . . Bottley radiates warmth and relatability . . . Coles plays the familiar entertainment part of host struggling to control his effervescent guests . . . Fraser goes in to bat for muscular Christianity. * Church Times *
It was heartening to hear a Church of England priest - Canon Fraser in this instance - state unashamed, "We're good at funerals", and he can also lay claim to the most affecting story of the half-hour, when he admitted to a temporary loss of faith after officiating at the funeral of a child. * Church Times *
