Praise

Is due to Rowan Williams, for pointing out the shabby treatment of Christianity by the BBC.

Moved by his words, I watched Songs of Praise this afternoon. I was flabbergasted. People who want to watch it weekly presumably want to watch a filmed church service. Certainly, it had far higher viewing figures when that was what it was.

And simply filming a church service of the “hymn sandwich” variety would be vastly less expensive.
