The same Harold Macmillan who was advised by the Archbishop of Canterbury not to appoint Ramsey.

"Well you were not my Headmaster Archbishop!"

Just to confirm, the trial continues tomorrow in Hove Trial Centre court 4? Is there a time listed anywhere?
Hi Yossairan
1000am
Register on this site and you get access to the lists. Lewes is confusing as there are courts in Lewes, Brighton and Hove.
Still court 4 in Hove. Her Honour Judge Henson

Was chapel 4-5 times a week the norm in the late 80s/early 90s, and with Dobbie playing a larger role?
Hmmm, maybe not 4-5, but sadly not as good as twice a week. IIRC the seniors got less chapel too, but there were services that were basically hymn rehearsals with the lantern-jawed Allwood vainly trying to coax everyone to sing well.
Dobbie was possibly more prominent then, but prominence is relative. If you elected to go to voluntary services, including communion, you probably got more Dobbie. If you just went to the compulsory stock, then you got Dobbie (or the sour Banyard) doing prayers, announcing hymns, etc. Perhaps once or twice a term they did a sermon, but the habit was to cast the net wider for people to deliver sermons, like, er, (tediously) the HM, or (dubiously) Peter Ball or (dubiously) Enoch Powell.
lantern-jawed Allwood....? I am in f***ing tears!!

Looks like the Jury will be deliberating soon unless there are raft of defence witnesses.
Dobbie giving evidence today.

JR - It's a bit weird as now it's referring to Witness 5 resumes - Could this be different from the Defendant?

Witness 5 seems to be the Defendant.

Practical note on the trial if anyone is thinking about going down:
The prosecution case is def concluded. Trial resumes in the morning with the start of cross examination of GWD. There was also talk from the defence of a witness being interposed as some point in the next day or two. There is a scheduling issue as video link is involved.
