   No idea what "VoD 2021" is meant to be.   
      
   The only thing I know of from 2021 is a documentary with some of the   
   cast looking back at the show, "The Vicar of Dibley: Inside Out".   
      
   There was a short series of brief webisodes made in 2020 "The Vicar of   
   Dibley: In Lockdown". Dawn French's Vicar characer made a series of   
   Zoom-style calls to her parishoners during Covid lockdown. One of the   
   webisodes was pretty sad since it about Alice Tinker, after the actress   
   who played the role died.   
      
   There has been a few charity episodes for Comic Relief as well.
