| "Moves to canonise
a former Scottish factory girl have won the backing of veteran television presenter Sir
Jimmy Savile" BBCNEWS OL, 12th July,2003. "Good
evenin guys n gals and welcome again to my show, where yours truly,
Supreme Pontiff, The Vicar of Christ and all that, attempt to fix it for the good people
who write into the show.
I have here, in my hand, a letter from a young man, Jimmy Savile, and this is
what he say :"Dear Pope, As a young boy, I was mortally ill, until my mother, The
Duchess, as I called her, prayed for a divine intercession through the memory of Mary
Sinclair.
Could you fix it for me to make Mary Sinclair a saint on account of how she
saved my life, allowing me to grow up to entertain all the guys n gals with my
slightly sinister overly-friendly schtick that produced a vague sense of unease among
viewers especially when I sat close to kids on my show what used to be on the telly,
goodness gracious, howsabout that then, guys n gals."

and
young Jimmy goes on for a bit more, guys n gals, about the amount of work
hell be doing for charity in the next month and provides a detailed timetable so
camera crews can capture on film the quiet dedication of a man what does not like to make
a big fuss about how he helps people
Well, young Jim, Ive had
a word with the powers that be, as it were, and it turns out that saving a life through
divine intercession is normally a supportive factor in the beatification process. But, bad
news Im afraid, it doesnt count if the person whose life is saved, turns out
to be a gimlet-eyed twat who creeps everyone out. So no can do, little Jimmy, but we will
be sending you a Stylophone and a Spacehopper to make up for it
Now then, now then, moving on. I have here another letter, this time, from a
young man called Tony Blair who asks: "Dear Pope, Could you fix it for me so that
people dont think Im lying my fuckin head off about WMD."
Now then, now then, young Tony, what do you think I
am, a miracle worker? |
