Must admit I didnt warm to him. He reminded me of those sanctamonious bohemians you find in Brighton pubs who engage in conversations with you to get free drinks, steal your fags and generally get on your nerves. |

didn't like the programme at all, and found him supremely arrogant.
the moment near the end when he stood by a road and implied that everyone driving past him was materialist and bad or something like that rang alarm bells in me.
How could he know who those people in those cars were and what their motives or beliefs were?
I am English and Buddhist, but if I had driven past him at that point in the film, he would have branded me as something I am not.... just because I was in a car driving past him at that time. |

Well worth watching this, about a Priest who is trying to follow the rule of St Francis of Assisi and live without money.
In last weeks programme he managed to get from Brighton to North Devon (in 2 weeks) purely on the generosity of strangers.
Beeb2 tonight at 9pm |
