Millions around the world tune into Hertford

I found an interesting bit of gossip in the this week's Mercury -- millions of people all over the world are tuning in to an Australian TV documentary released at the weekend featuring Hertford and the Templars. [}:)] There was a report on the front page of the German Financial Times at the weekend too. Apparently the documentary includes an "underground tour of Hertford's tunnels"! [:0] Here's an extract:- THE Media Centre in Hertford, which is home to the Mercury newspaper, was beamed into millions of homes when a documentary by Australian TV's 60 Minutes on the search for the Holy Grail was broadcast on Sunday. It scored one of the highest ratings of the year for the celebrated current affairs show, topping the 6.5m mark. And the programme, entitled Breaking the Code, will be watched by millions more when it goes out to another 65 countries in the coming weeks. -- Hertfordshire Mercury, Friday, 13 May 2005. http://www.herts-essex-news.co.uk/news/mercury/hertfordshire_mercury/2005/05/13/hertford%20grail%20trail%20hits%20aussie%20headlines.lpf

Is this going to be shown on British TV at all do you know? It's very interesting - especially if they have gone into the tunnels - how did they manage that then?

Would certainly be interesting to watch.

Apparently the film crew turned up at Bengeo Temple Farm some months ago asking to film. I understand that the landlord, Abel-Smith, denied permission.

What does Abel Smith have to hide? I recall:- http://www.hertford.net/yoursay/topic.php?id=569

Perhaps he's a member of the Illuminati. More likely there's nothing to hide, but it won't do him any harm to hint that there is.

He might just not want people poking around his land. If he lets one person then they will all expect to.
