Reverend Richard Coles

By: Holly Newson
Narrated by: Reverend Richard Coles

Publisher's Summary

Joining us at Audible Studios is broadcaster, author and retired Church of England clergyman, Reverend Richard Coles.

Rising to fame as a pop star as part of The Communards, Richard Coles has had a very varied career - he has worked as a vicar for several parishes after finding religion later in life, has appeared on many panel shows such as Would I Lie to You and Have I Got News for You, as well as hosting Saturday Live on Radio 4. He shared his life through his memoirs, including details of his civil partnership and grief following the death of his partner.

Coles has begun writing fiction – the Canon Clement Mystery series – starting with Murder Before Evensong, and is with us to talk about the second in the series, A Death in the Parish. (But don’t worry, there are no spoilers for either book!) We speak about his life since retirement from the clergy, about his dog Daisy who will do anything for taramasalata, and how real life and murder really does happen in sleepy towns.
