LOL...

"The BBC is embroiled in a major legal action after declining to run the children’s animation show ScientologyGerbil.

Commissioners rejected the US-made programme on the basis that it was ‘thinly-veiled religious propaganda.’ The ‘independent’ production company Old Mother Hubbard Productions who made the series have hit back, pointing out that CBBC currently screens the show Rastamouse, which they claim encourages children to embrace Rastafarianism, and Teletubbies, which ‘might be something to do with the Church of England’. They have now launched a multi-million pound legal fight against the BBC to force them to broadcast it in a prime slot."

Er, you do know this is a spoof?...

And rather amusing – just shows what the media and wider public think of Scientology (as if we didn’t already know).

I like Rastamouse – do you get it in the States? Worth checking out just for the accents.

Scientology Gerbil??

I think that Richard Gere then, would be the first celebrity, who instead of getting into scientology had scientology get into them!
