I watch quite a lot of children's programmes (It's obligatory for grandparents) and of all the ones I've seen (apart from EWTN) the only one to include a church and its incumbent in the storyline is Postman Pat. Just a point of interest KatyA |

Katey A, I watch a lot of childrens programing myself. I must keep up with Clifford, the big red dog, Authur, Cyberchase and between the Lions, a reading program. They are preferable to Judge Judy and The Ellen Show. sm |

I watched a show on TV last night. A rarity for me. A program about the last few hours of World War 1. A man named Michael Palin showed us just how stupid some generals were in throwing lives away right up to the last minute. And while I enjoyed the program, the whole thing was very sad. The pictures of the man who lost almost half of his face were very sad, and reminded me of the men I used to see as a child who had lost one or both legs. |

Sounds interesting Sean. "A man named Michael Palin...". Hmmm. You can tell you're not English! |

From which remark I infer that Michael Palin is well known to television viewers in England. |

Sean, he was in Monty Python before he became a serious broadcaster. I saw that programme too, and found it very sad. My great grandfather was in the Artillery in the First World War, and he and his mates found they had one shell left after the Armistice so they fired it to give the Germans "one for luck". There was an immediate enquiry into who fired the shot, but their captain did not give them up! |

I must admit I didn't see the Delia Smith programme on BBC, but this review from Richard Marsden was quite enlightening

I wonder if anyone has seen the new programme on BBC1 - Apparitions - and what they thought of it. I must admit I have enjoyed it, although I can see it would be too gory for some. Nice to have a Catholic priest on the TV who isn't portrayed as an idiot or a bigot. Peace Ian |

Not me. In any case I don't watch much Tele. I suppose if I was clever I could have a split screen which would allow me to surf and watch at the same time. |

I haven't watched the programme - apart from the fact that I don't do much telly watching, I wasn't impressed by some of the reviews of this programme. I came across this piece on Richard Marsden's blog Bashing Secularism
The link above takes you to the article, but thefront page has several interesting posts on other subjects KatyA PS I looked at his profile and he's the same age and attended the same uni as one of my sons, hence the plug
