Popetown is an animated sitcom that looks at the daily nuisances that exist in the workplace - with one twist... This workplace is the Vatican and the CEO happens to be the Pope.
Centring on the long-suffering and good hearted Father Nicholas (voiced by Jam's Kevin Eldon), and his daily struggle against life's up and downs. Also featured amongst the voice cast are: Ruby Wax, Jerry Hall, Matt Lucas, Bob Mortimer and Mackenzie Crook.
Due to be shown on BBC 3, the programme was pulled from the schedules due to its content; which 'Auntie' considered to be offensive to the Catholic Church, in light of the opposition it faced from numerous religious groups throughout the UK.
