@catherinejones9396 When the Anglican Church decided to go for ordaining women to be priests, I left the Anglican Church forever. They had a screenshot on this episode of a woman in a priest's collar and she looked ridiculous. All the beauty that once was in the old Church is long gone. They've turned all the altars around, dumped the old Prayer Book for modern language and they have "alter girls"

@@catherinejones9396 For centuries Church of England priests have been exclusively male. The 1970s saw the end of traditional Anglicanism. As to "God" creating male and female to "serve" him, well, to me, this is way, way off the mark. Why would god require anybody at ALL to "serve" him? As to the Adam and Eve story and the supposed "fall of man" there is absolutely no evidence that Adam and Eve ever existed. None whatsoever.

A few years back I walked the pilgrims way with some friends from Salisbury to Winchester to Canterbury ..

What a wonderful journey. It felt like I was on a Pilgrimage myself.

We’ve taken so many of these pilgrimages, and will probably spend the rest of our lives walking portions of them. We’re completely taken in, and have, I’ll venture to say, experienced a handful of miracles, most likely more that we were blissfully unaware of. Often it seems an academic approach to history and culture can be like plucking the wings off a butterfly, but these pilgrimages restore flight to wonder!

David Suchet is a treasure of a man .

I'm not a religious person but I recognise the great beauty and awe inspired by these glorious buildings.

I like the idea of pilgrimage and hope to start embarking someday. To the Cathedral of my diocese, to Walsingham, to Cathedral of Westminster, to Rome and to the Holy Land.

David Suchet is a great speaker and actor

When there are prayer intentions rattling around in my mind, I've often found that pilgrimage is the best thing to do. Some physical and financial effort, bodily taking them to a holy place, and asking the saints who are still at work there to take over, has brought a lot of peace. And you always returns from pilgrimage a bit different - it changes you 😊

How many wonderful and faithful Catedral! Thank you for this video. Greetings from Italy!

Why is Henry now describing Thomas as a “low-born cleric” when previously it had always been “turbulent priest”?

Ooh history. Cathedrals and suchet yippee:)

I went to see Wells Cathedrals last year. I was absolutely awe stuck by the size, detail and grandeur. So worth a visit.

Lovely effort to exhibit what is left of the cathedral age in England. It was Henry VIII who instructed the destruction of Thomas a Becket's tomb, both at Canterbury, and at the Bridge in London, so one can hardly castigate the 'reformation' for its destruction of thousands of artifacts, stained glass, illuminated manuscripts, sculptures and abbeys when the king himself led this wholesale ruination, Henry's own "bonfire of the vanities" as it were. The Lindisfarne Gospels escaped that fury by an inch. Imagine how many others did not.

Thank you.

I think Wells is the one I want to see most, after Canterbury maybe.

Liverpool Anglican cathedral is beautiful..and we have two..A Catholic one at the opposite end of Hope street.

Saint Paul preached at Ludd Hill, the sight of St Paul's Cathedral. Acts 29.

A wonderful video - but there is one error, David Suchet wrongly states that the Golden Window of Wells cathedral is placed in the Lady chapel, when in truth, it is located in the choir above the high altar - and what a magnificent window it is, too.

Madame, vos aimables pensées sont les bienvenues - et vous ne devriez pas penser en fonction de votre âge. Tant que j'ai le souffle, je suis déterminé à revoir une fois de plus la puissante flèche de Rouen (avec laquelle le diocèse d'Ely dans le Cambridgeshire a partagé un temps son Ordinaire au XVe siècle - Louis de Luxembourg, Cardinal Archevêque de Rouen et Évêque d'Ely!) la vénérable Basilique Saint-Pierre-aux-Nonnains de Metz - l'envolée de la magnificence d'Amiens, Reims, Chartres et Beauvais - sans oublier la pure perfection gothique de Notre Dame de Paris... ...et puis-je suggérer gentiment une petite correction? "Mr. Suchet" est mort, vive Sir David😏

Canterbury the Very Start? Give me a break. One of the first things Augustine had to do was to meet with the bishops. Pagans had bishops? They were Celtic Christians, who originated in Ireland.

Hope Exeter on the list as a choirister there in 1960's😅

Let’s hear the organs and choirs of these cathedrals on future installments. Some of your music sounds like it came right out of a recording studio.

Being a programme about British cathedrals, could we have British music instead of Allegri (Italian), Fauré (French) and the others. Why not have Byrd, Tallis, Howells, Battishill, Sumsion, Vaughan Wililams, Stanford, Wood, and a hundred others that were directors of music (organists) at these British cathedrals.

They were the Catholic Church's great cathedrals until Henry the 8th kicked the Church out and stole all the Church property.

Canterbury Cathedral is not one of the finest Gothic cathedrals in England, it is, internally at least, the finest Gothic cathedral in the World. Simple fact.

I always find it interesting how reluctant the English are to acknowledge many of their famous cathedrals as having been built as Roman Catholic cathedrals, which were seized by Henry VIII and and given to his new church. If a cathedral was built prior to 1530, it was originally Roman Catholic.

@JohnMatthews-tv7tf

Ай бұрын

Are we reluctant? The circumstances surrounding the break with Rome are taught in schools and generally well known. However it was almost 500 years ago and the majority of cathedrals have been Anglican for longer than they were Roman Catholic. To be honest I don't think most people think about it - it is just the way that it is.

@elainebardwell2784

Ай бұрын

Also there is a huge continuity of worshippers and parishioners - replacing bishops or monks didn’t mean most Christians were rendered ‘homeless’. In fact the survival and use of many Cathedrals and parish churches is the result of their loyalty to their communities and ancestors. Hence to many our Cathedrals are simply English rather than ‘Roman’

Since Stonehenge or Cuzco precolumbian civilizations FAITH made people achieve things we still can not explain to present days...like someone out there should help up and give humans a hand...in fact, religions teach and preach the symbiotic relationship with Mother Earth...she cares like a true mother for her babies, let's have FAITH then. Jesus Christ is not the only one used to send messages, all of us are used the same way if we care to feel... God's sons to carry on his will...even God is lonely helpless overwhelmed😢😢😢 each individual is free to decide, help him up or not, therefore let's encourage everybody explore faith secrets and get involved 🎉❤🎉

You can only find perfect peace through Jesus Christ. This message must be central to EVERY church. The cathedrals are magnificent but the Anglican church has deviated from stressing conviction of one's sin, repentance or being truly sorry for it, and knowing that salvation comes ONLY through Jesus Christ. To not grasp this means eternal damnation. Read the Bible thoroughly. Christianity is not some vague feeling or "experience."

You couldn't be more wrong. Great cathedrals were built as a testament of the greatest love. People walked as pilgrims to these places as a testament of the greatest love.

Sadly, people are so intellectually dull these days that they can only see the most superficial forms and believe everything else is superfluous.
