Grantchester fans were left feeling red-faced last night (Wednesday, February 12) after hunky vicar Alphy Kotteram engaged in a raunchy sex scene.
Alphy, played by Rishi Nair, has proven to be a hit with viewers since making his debut on this series.
Alphy’s raunchy sex scene on Grantchester
Last night’s edition of Grantchester saw Reverend Alphy get hot and heavy with a woman he met at the pub.
In scenes shown on the hit ITV show, Alphy was seen meeting a woman called Petra at the local pub.
The conversation between them was minimal before they shared an intimate kiss.
Things escalated when Alphy and Petra were then shown sharing a passionate moment in her university quarters.
However, the scene which left many flustered, left some with slightly confused.
Grantchester fans confused by Alphy’s sex scene
Some fans were under the impression that Alphy would have remained celibate due to his position as a vicar.
“A vicar having sex before marriage? And in the 50s,” one shocked viewer tweeted.
“Wasn’t expecting a sex scene from THE VICAR of all people! is this typical? aren’t vicars supposed to abstain…,” another viewer wrote.
Of all people!
“I thought he was meant to be a vicar, lol,” a third remarked.
“I thought vicars were supposed to abstain,” another said.
As they are Anglican in Grantchester and therefore supposed to abstain, it remains to be seen whether there’ll be any repercussions for Alphy…
New boy Rishi proves to be a hit
Grantchester’s newest cast member has proven to be something of a hit with fans since making his debut earlier this series.
Many were left swooning over the handsome vicar.
“Grantchester certainly gets some tasty vicar,” one fan tweeted earlier in the series.
“Loving Alphy – he’s also a dish,” another said.
“Well the new vicar gets my approval,” another added.
Speaking about his role, actor Rishi said: “He is anti-police. He has this perception about the institution, growing up as a brown man in the 1940s and 1950s in Britain his experience with the police would have been very different to the previous vicars and so he has this perception about them and he has this personality trait that anyone that abuses their power, or anyone in position of power, he always stands up to that morally.”
