Christmas is not a jolly time for the Rev. I.M. Jolly. His wife has gone home to his mother, his parishioners are revolting, His Father Christmas has the kids in tears and his turkey is frozen solid. Is it surprising that the Swear Box is full? In this hilarious Christmas Special, the inimitable Rikki Fulton takes the outrageous, cynical, Doomsday-faced Jolly on a disaster-filled seasonal odyssey bringing mayhem and mirth from Christmas Eve to Hogmanay.

A play following the life and times of much loved comedian Rikki Fulton.

Dearly bewildered we are gathered here today to celebrate a year in the life of the most Reverend IM Jolly. Witness catastrophes of biblical proportions and holy bedlam staring in spring where a (not so) young man's fancy turns to love. As the happy couple prepare to jet off on honeymoon our hapless minister prepares to spend a night in jail.Summer finds the good Reverend in Edinburgh for the General Assembly and in autumn his generosity knows no bounds.Finally the winter of discontent - Jolly's daydreams of a better life keep him warm amid the winter snow but alas even in his dreams things do not go to plan.Yea verily this classic programme of the comic genius of Rikki Fulton will have you rolling in the aisles. Not so much loaves and fishes but pies and Irn Bru. The moral of this story is let us gives thanks to the Reverend for he is good and behold his gift of mirth is bountiful.

Rikki Fulton and friends return with another selection of sketches and comedy characters, including the Reverend I.M. Jolly, Supercop, dirty barber Alky Broon and Big Chief Swift Half.

Reverend IM Jolly looks back at his career as he prepares for his final Last Call

A centenary celebration of the life and legacy of Rikki Fulton, one of Scotland’s most beloved comic actors. Ashley Jensen narrates an affectionate tribute to one of Scotland’s funniest comedians, Rikki Fulton. It’s 100 years since Rikki first made an entrance on to the world stage and 20 years since he bowed out. For decades, he’s been making the nation laugh with his rubber face, razor sharp wit and laconic demeanour. His influence is still felt in new generations of comics, and clips of his sketches still make us laugh to this day.
