I notice OVZ decided against the second batch of BoD.

This week would really have battered his head.

They seem to have picked up Karl Marx

This is getting dangerous. I mean, even more dangerous...than kids getting scrobbled by the clergy etc etc

How is an archbishop going to fit this into his theology?

I wonder if this whole thing really was a dream Masefield had one Christmas when he ate and drank too much?

Yep, a surfeit of buttered eggs had a lot to answer for

Is the congragation really going to turn up all together in the last minute? Unlikely.

Well, this old "it's dated" thing doesn't bother me. The story not being joined up did.

I read the book when I was a child and really enjoyed it. I am now thinking that I would like to find a copy, and see if it makes any more sense than the TV version.
