<Li> 5 other great nieces </Li> <Li> 4 great nephews </Li> <P> David Horton's very tall and attractive brother Simon Horton (Clive Mantle) becomes one of the Vicar's lovers in a brief romance . They first meet at the drinks party before Alice and Hugo's wedding and later they meet again when Simon comes up for Sunday lunch with David . After many efforts to get rid of several parishioners who come knocking on her door with various requests, including telling Jim Trott and Frank Pickle that 7 down on a crossword is "Plodipop", and arranging the four words "Leave - You - Remorseless - Bastards" on the Scrabble board, Geraldine finally manages to join Simon who's waiting patiently in her bedroom, followed by a few weeks of romantic bliss . Later Simon dumps her telling her that he has a girlfriend in Liverpool . A struck Geraldine therefore goes into seclusion, binging on chocolate bars and pots of ice cream, and neglecting her church duties . She decides to resign from her ministry as the Vicar of Dibley, but changes her mind when her parishioners and friends show their loyalty and support by hanging up a huge banner that reads "That tall git Simon may have bonked you and then dumped you like an old jock strap but we still love you ." </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th_colspan="2"> Harry Kennedy </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th_colspan="2"> The Vicar of Dibley character </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Portrayed by </Th> <Td> Richard Armitage </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Duration </Th> <Td> 2006 - 2007 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> First appearance </Th> <Td> "The Handsome Stranger" </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Last appearance </Th> <Td> Comic Relief Sketch 2007 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th_colspan="2"> Profile </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Occupation </Th> <Td> Accountant </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="2"> <Table> <Tr> <Th_colspan="2"> (show) Family </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Sisters </Th> <Td> Rosie Kennedy </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Wife </Th> <Td> Geraldine Granger (2007 -?) </Td> </Tr> </Table> </Td> </Tr> </Table>
