Billy Graham

1967 , Cambridge (Cambridgeshire)

Cat no. 225387

BBC Look East news report on the ethics of American evangelist preacher Billy Graham's sermons.

At the Regal Cinema in Cambridge the audience arrives to watch the main feature – a live television link via the big screen to American Evangelist Christian preacher Billy Graham at Earl’s Court. A group of clergymen stand at the entrance to the cinema as people enter the building. A view down the street shows the University Arms Hotel. Footage follows of the Billy Graham Crusade at Earl's Court, of Graham preaching to the large audience, and people leaving their seats to come forward and commit to a life of Christian faith. After the screening, two vicars seated in the auditorium discuss the Billy Graham Crusade, questioning the preacher’s methods, his effect on audience members, and asking if this particular style of sermon is moral and ethical. One of the clergymen produces a pipe and smokes it while speaking.
