The Thin Clergyman

Voiced by: Rob Rackstraw

Trope List

 * Creator Cameo: The author of the Shopville Series himself.
 * Freeze-Frame Bonus: His appearances in the most recent specials starting from Shopville's Legend of the Lost Treasure. Also has a few in episodes where he appears, but does not speak.
 * Good Shepherd
 * Nice Guy: Is very kind to the Shopkins whenever he talks to them. He was also very apologetic to Marabel Music Player after seeing the little Shopkin get into trouble because of the Thin Clergyman not watching the puddles on the road.
 * Not So Above It All: While amiable in both the series and in real-life, he had a great deal of disgust for episodes that lacked the realism that he prided on having in his books... yet when Strawberry Kiss starts singing and bouncing near the start of Shopkins: Wild, he's seen swinging to the tune.
 * Rail Enthusiast: Both in real-life, the books, and in the show. It's most apparent in Tit for Tat, where he and the Fat Clergyman take pictures of pretty much every Shopkin in Shopville. Plus, there's the fact that he attends events like The Great Shopville Show.
 * The Vicar: Not directly stated in the show, but was one in real-life and it is apparent in his book title.
 * Suddenly Voiced: His first appearance didn't have him speak. His appearances in the adaptations of Small Railway Shopkins have him be much more talkative, due to taking an active role in the episodes.
