When in Rome....

Quite a media-friendly party off to Rome this weekend, to accompany Archbishop Vincent Nichols as he becomes a Cardinal. BBC Chairman and leading lay-Catholic Lord Patten of Barnes will be there, alongside Communities Minister, Baroness Stowell, previously Head of Communications for three other BBC "Chairs", Gavyn Davies, Michael Grade and Michael Lyons. You can imagine them whittling away airport lounge hours with banter about governance and charters.

Vincent Nichols, as a lad from Crosby, is of course super-media-friendly, as a pillar of Prayer for the Day, Thought for the Day, and Radio 2's Pause for Thought.
