Philip Wilson

Philip is determined to climb the greasy pole, but he’s hiding a damning secret.

When we’re reunited with parish clerk Philip, he’s still Vicar Oddie’s lapdog, striving to become a big fish in a small pond.

Philip

However, the arrival of MP Maxine Martin gets him hot beneath the tweed collar: could she be his ticket to a glittering career in Westminster?

Philip is ostensibly a pillar of society and in the past has taken a very public anti-PDS stance.

But behind closed doors, he’s less than squeaky clean. In such a prominent public position, can Philip keep his private life private?
