tea vicar

Hi,

I found a sentence in a text book and I don't really get what it meant.
Does anyone know what an expression of "do you want some more tea vicar" means?
I searched in dictionary, but the only word I could find was "vicar" which means some kind of bishop or pope in a church.

Thank you.

Hi,

do you want some more tea vicar

Do you want some more tea, Vicar?

In the Church of England, a vicar is a relatively low-level cleric.

I see. So it should have a comma after "tea".
And I'm sorry for my wrong meaning of Vicar. I'm not Christians so I don't get at all about the level of it.
Thanks a lot, Grammar Geek and Clive.

One more question, is there any idiom usage of tea vicar?

Where did you see it? It strikes me as a quintessentially Englis

Hi,

Are you still asking about idioms?

Or are you trying to identify each of the many, many ways you can offer tea to a vicar?
You can offer a vicar anything

Hi Clive,

I don't know. Maybe not idiom, as the exact word.
Is there any other meaning of "more tea, Vicar" informally, perhaps?

Hi enoon,

I saw it in my English course textbook as a part of dialogue of a certain unit.
