MEDIUMS ATTEMPT TO CONTACT LENNON FOR TV SPECIAL
JOHN LENNON's spirit is set to star in a controversial new pay-per-view TV special as top mediums attempt to contact the dead BEATLE from beyond the grave. The producers of THE SPIRIT OF DIANA - a televised attempt to contact tragic British royal PRINCESS DIANA - are behind the new show, which will air in the US next month (24APR06).
Beatles fans and the curious will have to pay $9.95 (GBP5.80) to watch the special. Producer PAUL SHARRATT is aware the seance show will draw the same critics who blasted the Diana special for being "tasteless TV" but he insists people are genuinely interested. He says, "People say this is disgusting and I accept that criticism, but we're making a serious attempt to do something that many, many millions of people around the world think is possible." More than 500,000 Americans tuned in to see Sharratt and his company Starcast Productions' Diana special in 2003.
THE SPIRIT OF JOHN LENNON is being done without the consent of Lennon's widow YOKO ONO and his estate. During the special, psychics will travel to sites of significance for the former Beatle, including New York's Dakota Building, where Lennon lived and was fatally shot by deranged fan MARK DAVID CHAPMAN in 1980. The special will also go international and feature a spirit reader at an ashram in India, who claims he can contact Lennon to receive music and lyrics.

>Church of England is now considering making Lennon Patron Saint of Hallucinogenic Substances<
In addition to its peace work, Lennon's spectre has also reportedly been busy on the home front, watching over some of Liverpool's most socially deprived and needy citizens. "I was in a really bad way - desperate for a fix, but still sick because of some really bad gear I'd tried - when suddenly John Lennon appeared before me," relates unemployed and homeless Barry Tarpit. "Before I knew it, he'd led me to a dealer who sold me some of the best quality crack I'd ever had! Lennon definitely saved my life!"
As a consequence of this and several similar incidents, the Church of England is now considering making Lennon Patron Saint of Hallucinogenic Substances, a move which, predictably, has been greeted with condemnation in many corners. "If it wasn't bad enough endorsing adultery, now these trendy liberals propose to sanctify drug taking," opines Archdeacon Peter Rydim of the church's evangelical wing. "Are these really the sort of people we want to attract into our congregation?" Despite such opposition, Bishop Backland believes the creation of 'relevant' new saints is essential for the Anglican's survival. "Look, we can't afford to be too choosy about who we let in - druggies, recidivists, bigamists, buggerers, we need anybody who can fill a pew! We can accommodate them all - we're a broad church, after all," he argues. "Besides, shouldn't we be looking amongst the sinners for converts, rather than just preaching to the converted?"
