Merry Christmas -- Happy New Year -- Comic relief special

Merry Christmas: Christmas coincides with Geraldine's tenth year as vicar and David suggests she apply to be a bishop. A coincidental visit by Rachel Hunter leads Alice to believe that Geraldine is gay but plans go ahead for her to meet the Archbishop of Canterbury to discuss her promotion. At her party she dives into a chocolate fountain, emerging to meet the Archbishop. Sensing she has blown the promotion she gets drunk and delivers a bizarre midnight mass, whilst Jim's winning entry in a carol contest is similarly unusual

Special features: Dibley defrocked and 2005 Comic Relief sketch: Antiques Roadshow; cast bios

Happy New Year: It's the vicar's fortieth birthday and the villagers club together to buy her a present -- an evening at a speed-dating session. Unfortunately the one handsome young man there, Steve, gets snapped up by a blonde girl. The other male participants are all council members. Geraldine is cheered, however, when the parish council all agree to back her support for the Make Poverty History campaign after watching a moving film about orphans in Africa

Creator, Richard Curtis ; music, Howard Goodall

Comic relief special: The television Antiques Road Show comes to Dibley. Alice is convinced that a small plastic model of a Smurf given her by her father must be valuable. To prevent her being disappointed Geraldine bribes expert Hilary Kay to say it is worth two thousand pounds. When Alice wants to sell it to an antiques shop for charity, Geraldine offers to do it for her but has to sell her own belongings to make the two grand
