Trevor Peacock, who played Jim Trott in The Vicar of Dibley, has died at the age of 89. Peacock who appeared in many British shows, from EastEnders to Jonathan Creek, had dementia.

A statement on behalf of his family said: “Trevor Peacock, actor, writer and song-writer, died aged 89 on the morning of 8 March from a dementia-related illness.”

Peacock, who was also a prolific stage actor and screenwriter in the 1950s and 60s, was last seen on TV in the 2015 Comic Relief special of the Dawn French’s hugely popular BBC sitcom.

Peacock appeared in every episode of the Richard Curtis show since it began in 1994, apart from the recent Christmas special. Trott, his character, was a member of the Dibley Parish Council, perhaps most remembered for his repetition of the word “no” and his frequent use of sexual innuendo.

I thought it was hilarious. Especially the one lady who had some...interesting...ideas of recipes.

Very funny series and Peacock was hilarious. A lot of good British slapstick “shtich”.

The young girl in the show died at a very young age. She was cute and funny as could be.

Both are missed.
