Rain of Biblical proportions forced Jesus to wear an anorak

Despite rain of biblical proportions a performance of the Easter Story went off without a hitch, with Jesus, his disciples and the rest of the cast having to perform in raincoats.

Fending off the rain Soul by the Sea held their fourth annual open air play of Passion of the Christ outside St Peter’s Church in Brighton.



Torrential rain poured down during most of the performance, but as if on cue the sun burst through the black crowds clouds at the moment Jesus was resurrected.

The cast put on a second performance in the late afternoon in full costume basking in the glorious sun.

"Through the black crowds?" Was the afternoon one for whites only? Well, bless their little segregated hearts.

I know it isn't you, Arbroath. I went and looked at the main article. Shows how sloppy proof reading has become, though.

The Argus is well known for sloppy writing and editing - bit of a local ongoing joke!

Oops, I missed that!

Today's Argus online - 'Body found in industrial state'.

Hahaha! :)

Before it was corrected, the original Argus article for the anoraked Jesus story also described the Last Supper as the last summer.
