Getting a religious ad “banned” by a company that doesn’t show religious advertisements is evidence not of religious persecution but of the idiocy of the Church of England’s press office.
We should be thanking God that religious (and political) ads are banned in cinemas.
With out looking at a map I can think of three:
Belfast;
The Cathedral of The Isles, Millport; and
Carlisle.
I am not sure if there are others, the next two which are probably further than Glasgow are Newcastle and St Mary’s Edinburgh
No, I don’t think so, Stewart. Partly right and partly wrong.
Greetings from Cowal & Bute.
Carlisle Cathedral must be closest to Castle Douglas.
I suspect that St German in Peel, diocese of Sodor & Man, is next closest as the seagull flies – the radio reception from the Isle of Man is extraordinarily clear down there.

It is no great secret that I don’t like Apple products. But that doesn’t stop me wanting to pause for a moment to remember Steve Jobs and acknowledge the impact he had. Quite simply, he changed the way the western world works and the way it plays. He may even be responsible for some of…
I’ve not been very far in the last few days – I’m still under the weather with a bug I came down with last weekend. Hopefully I’ll start to get moving again in the next couple of days, but so far I’ve been trapped in Praepostorial Towers and unable to do much other than rest…
Though I was laid up in a bed of affliction and suffering over the weekend (I had a bug) St Mary’s had a busy weekend on the wireless. Firstly another New Every Morning service on BBC Radio Scotland with some choral music, a reading from Christabel and a sermon and prayers from me which you…
