For the book A Country Parish, see Arnold Boyd.

A Country Parish is a British television documentary made by Tiger Aspect Productions for BBC2 which was first broadcast in 2003. The programme concerns the life of Jamie Allen who at the beginning of the series is a young, proactive curate from a working-class background in a non too prosperous Midlands town.

However much to his surprise, he is suddenly made rector of a wealthy, long standing and beautiful parish in the heart of rural Wiltshire. He is very much not what was expected by the parishioners and the series follows the new rector as he tries to win over his new parishioners.
