A new two-part documentary in which Edi Stark visits vicarages, rectories and manses throughout the country to talk to modern-day wives of clergymen. 1: 1 Don't Do Scones. It is traditionally assumed that a clergy wife should act as an unpaid curate, devoted to her partner's calling. Wearing a nose-stud is one way to counterthe stereotype, while another wife happily shops as her husband is preaching from the pulpit, but most women still feel the pressures of expectation to lead holy lives.
Although women, too, are now ordained, there is still church antipathy towards full equality in a traditionally patriarchal, hierarchical domain. Producer Edi Stark
