GoodlyBydeLoad EngleeBold that Nebbly Wost.


It's beginning to look like some sort of military base from an unfilmed Gerry Anderson live-action show around Mount Pleasant in Liverpool, rather than a centre of religious devotion. I can imagine the whole Cathedral dropping slowly into a giant underground cavern as alarms echo out across the area. Still, I don't want to sound like I'm dissing religion at all - it all looks very pleasant indeed doesn't it? No need to shout any more.

Talk of Gerry Anderson reminds me of a recent U-Tube diversion we watched called The Secret Service, a strange mixture of standard GA puppetry and live action in a way that doesn't quite work but is instead really, really funny. On top of the general ludicrous execution is the fact that the main character, as well as being a priest, is played by professor Stanley Unwin. Penance viewing of a whole episode can be found here.
