Minority Pursuits

Some unseasonal squabbling from the Anglican church, disputing head-count figures that threatened to make Britain - land of Armada routs, Good Queen Bess and the Glorious Revolution - a Catholic country. But with the number of people regularly attending church services now well below two million (a number only twice as high as the worshippers' average age), isn't this all a bit like arguing whether Men in Toolbelts or Garden Police is the most watched programme on Discovery Home and Leisure?
