Do you get a slightly uncomfortable feeling when the BBC Flog it programme is filmed in a cathedral?

    Yes, I do. The place of worship has been turned into a common market place by the programme. It should be treated with more respect, and that means not allowing secular programmes to be made there. Programmes about religious matters are acceptable, I think. By the way, I have no real interest in religious matters, but your question struck a nerve with me!

    I do not get too uncomfortable about the Flog It Programme being filmed in Gloucester Cathedral, it had been

    agreed with the Dean and Chapter who rented it out for a fee.

    No doubt the Dean has to find ways of bringing in funds to help with keeping the fabric of the building

    in good repair.

    I did feel that it was not in keeping with moral standards when I noticed that an episode of Inspector George

    Gently included a gun fight in Durham Cathedral some years ago.

    I guess that the Anglican Church will do anything to make money these days.

    Not as much as I get when I see steep charges for entry to a cathedral. You have made it a den of thieves, You being the Church of the England that Thatcher built.
