A treat for my seminarian friends: Todd Seavey tipped me off to this delightfully bizarro trailer for "The Secret Service," a late-1960s British TV show by Gerry Anderson of "Thunderbirds" fame. There is something downright Chestertonian in the idea of a priest's combating evil by making himself smaller.
The series followed the adventures of Father Stanley Unwin, a priest who moonlights as a secret agent for an organization called B.I.S.H.O.P. (British Intelligence Service Headquarters, Operation Priest). Answering to a man known as "The Bishop", Unwin is partnered with Matthew Harding, who works as his gardener as cover for his espionage work.
