I can see it now, The Company Director, The Actress and The Bishop.
North-east panto queen Elaine C Smith is to play global singing sensation Susan Boyle in a new stage musical about her inspirational life story.
Elaine C Smith is to play Maria Dorrian's pal Susan Boyle in the new production of SuBo. It seems that Maria has befriended subo and stuck up for her after an "attack" in the Express re Subo and Padre Pio. (Those not of the Catholic persuasion of Imaginary Friends may skip this bit) Maybe Cardinal O'Brien could be persuaded to have a word in Maria's ear.
I understand from my Mum, who knows about such things, that a Mass can be said for virtually any case that needs divine intervention. So.... at the risk of good money after bad........ maybe someone could find which Chapel the sainted Maria is to be found at on a Sunday and slip the incumbent £20 * to say a mass for the swift and safe return of the Student Notes and the balance of the £2,000.
Obviously in order for the prayers of the assembled congregation to be effective, they would need to have some details of the problem.
The journalist, Sunday Express reporter Ben Borland, who was tarnished by Mrs. Dorrian's response to a bit of standard rehashing of news from the Catholic Obvserver, may well be interested enough to pursue this line of newsworthy stuff in a quiet week.
With a public profile such as Mrs. Dorrian tries to maintain,
MARIA Dorrian, Scottish delegate for the sanctuary of Saint Pio
I'd have thought it ill advised to dismiss such a heart tugging story as this young girl who dreamed a dream, her deceased Dad and a litany (see what I did there?) of failed business enterprises.
This could grow arms and legs!
