The Very Reverend Deacon B. Peachy
 
  USA 1982
9:00, colour
An examination of the American phenomenon the reli-show, selling God with the most aggressive merchandizing tactics as if it were a new brand of margarine. The spiritual father, aptly named B. Peachy, is portrayed in the best satirical tradition: plenty of quick-fire puns and a crushing undertone. 'Sister Mary's excellent camera work' provides even more fun for the viewer. The power of this video lies in its spontaneity and talent for improvisation. B. Peachy says things which a team of scriptwriters couldn't think up in a week. The programme is part of the 'series 'Communications Update'.
