If you liked the films ‘Conclave’ and ‘The Two Popes’, you’ll love Philippa Hitchen’s stories of close encounters with three popes! 

In thirty years living in Italy and working at the Vatican, Philippa travelled on the papal plane, watched close up the events of John Paul II’s illness and death, Benedict’s surprise resignation and the election of Francis, the first Latin American leader with a radical reform agenda. Over the years she met and interviewed princes and presidents, actors and rock stars, UN leaders and heads of many different faiths. Join us on 5th November for this fascinating ‘behind the scenes’ talk about one of the most intriguing places on the planet.

Starts at 19:30 @ Bourne End Community Centre (doors open at 19:00, bar opens at 19:00).
Tickets £6 (£7 if not a Community Centre member) can be booked online or obtained from the Community Centre Office.

This is a fund raising activity of Bourne End (Bucks) Community Association.
