STOP PRESS! Surprise BAFTA award to scout archivist for debut. Who needs Ian Hislop? Scouts announce new programme "Be Prepared" hosted by Paul Moynihan.
SSG get in on act and announce their series with same title on the liturgy.
Typical question: What to do if your Easter Candle catches fire?
Do you:
a Maintain that it must remain alight throughout the liturgy and let the church burn down
b Replace all candles with electrical versions
c Start a company to market b
d Inform the Vatican that candles are dangerous and should be phased out
e Cancel Easter?
True liturgists would of course choose a despite the consequences.
And this actually happened at Westminster Cathedral at Easter Day evening Mass. The incense sticks flew out of the candle hitting the floor with loud reports and the top of the candle decoration caught fire. Nightlights are now in use at the top of the somewhat shorter candle.
Scary stuff!
