OLL LEWIS: Yesterday's News Today

On this day in 1994 the Church of England ordained its first female priests. This was a momentous day for the Church but sadly also gave rise to the exceptionally bland sitcom The Vicar of Dibley.

It’s hard to believe that Richard Curtis could write something a brilliant as Blackadder then come out with ‘Dibley’ and his excruciating Hugh-Grant-athon films.

And now, the news:

"Dead" baby elephant calf born alive in Sydney zoo...
Giant beetle was shot down by Victorian insect collector
Mystery of 75 starlings falling from the sky
Danisco turns to snakes, spiders for potent enzyme...
Bank sorry for removing customer's parrot
Mary Rose's dog unveiled for the first time

Yarrrr, now there be a salty sea-dog.
