• Critics say Bishop "disoriented"Well, it had to happen sometime. Eternal "arch enemies" David Farrant and his nemesis the Bishop (as his uncloaked self) turned up in the same internet forum at the same time. Andrew Gough's Arcadia discussion Zone was the scene of the bizarre collision earlier today that caused many to wonder if the Bishop's stated policy of refusing to appear in the same venue as Farrant had lapsed. "The Bishop appears disoriented", complained one pundit, leading to speculation that an error in geriatric medications could be to blame for the historic "joint appearance" of the two lifelong foes.
• Bishop's posts tied to cache of dodgy photos
Strangest of all, since the Bishop's own pasted-in "glamour" photo accompanied his every post, alert computer nerds and IT boffins quickly sussed the web address from which it linked and originated: (http://www.holygrail-church.fsnet.co.uk/FarrantFacts_files/image002.jpg).
They soon discovered the "root directory" where the photo resides to be a virtual cesspit of anti-Farrant graphic materials: (http://www.holygrail-church.fsnet.co.uk/FarrantFacts_files). When asked why a Most Holy Bishop who has historically professed to be uninvolved in anti-Farrant internet shenanigans or His Church (inspired by visions of a bleeding Jesus standing in a giant cup) would need such uncharitable files, the Bishop's spokespersons remarked, "No doubt some malefic entity planted these files to 'frame' His Excellency, such as a creature from outer space or perhaps even another dimension who is surely in league with Farrant."• Sudden News Blackout
Less than 24 hours after news of the unprecedented meeting leaked, forum master Andrew Gough was forced to draw a cloak of secrecy over the proceedings by restricting access to the topic to a select few. "The Bishop made me agree to some bizarre conditions," he confessed, "among them, he requires that I kneel as I type."
The sudden news blackout prompted a rash of speculation. One source commented, "I reckon the
Bishop is undergoing a 'PR makeover' by his handlers. They want to make him appear more friendly and less foreboding. You'll see all that tosh about 'call me Bishop' disappear and a new 'average Joe' personality come out."Others felt that Gough had no choice but to remove the discussion from public view. One story circulated that Farrant's evil minions were tasked to send Andrew a voodoo doll, but the minions bungled the job, sending a plastic blow up doll from a local 'sex shop' instead. Another tale had the Bishop's solicitors on Gough's doorstep demanding a £10,000 "personal appearance fee".
• Access Restored
After nightfall, unrestricted access to Arcadia's forums reappeared as mysteriously as it had earlier vanished. The formerly cheeky Farrant returned to the forums appearing bruised and battered, promising "not to interact" with the Bishop. A post where he jokingly called the Bishop "Arminious" was deleted. His Excellency's sense of humour remained conspicuously absent. Given all the gratuitous genuflecting, is Gough the new heavy in this drama?
• Waiting for the Fracas to Commence
Observers say the mood is polite, yet many are merely awaiting the first volley to be fired. Most agree hostilities will officially begin when the Bishop's "hit men" post the first anti-Farrant news cutting (several have wagered it will be the ever-popular "sex mad witch" story).

Seán Manchester has never shyed from setting the record straight and the Farrant Facts file does just that very thing. It would not exist but for the internet being spammed with false and malicious claims which obviously need to be addressed by the person under attack.
As for the Arcadia forum, it is Farrant who invaded the topic titled "17 Questions: Seán Manchester" to stoke the furnace of a feud which is very one sided as Farrant's unprovoked attacks demonstrate.
The topic has nothing to do with Farrant and is there for people to discuss Seán Manchester and his interview with Andrew Gough. But Farrant just had to put his two penneth of predictable falsehood on it while promoting his completely non-existent "societies" and "psychic investigations."
Seán Manchester has ignored Farrant's presence in keeping with his policy of not providing the parasite with succour.
There is nothing "dodgy" about the photograph accompanying Seán Manchester's comments and it once again gives the lie to the false allegation made by Farrant that he trades under assumed names. He is there for all to see on Arcadia. And why not? People who create anti-Manchester blogs seem to believe he should have no right of response and are only happy when they are maligning and misrepresenting him unopposed.
WHAT'S SO TERRIBLE IN THAT?
"As for the Arcadia forum, it is Farrant who invaded the topic titled "17 Questions: Seán Manchester" to stoke the furnace of a feud which is very one sided as Farrant's unprovoked attacks demonstrate."
I really can't see where I've made any false statements on Arcadia other than repeat claims that other people had already made themselves about 'staking vampires'!
As I was central to the whole 'vampire case', I think I am quite entitled to do that to enable people to establish the truth for themselves!
Whats so terrible in that?

Can either of you comment on this Hasselblad photo of Farrant? It looks like he is made up for a theatre production.
Farrant purposely attempts to mislead at every available opportunity.
I was not talking about vampires.
I was referring to comments now deleted by a moderator due to their false and malicious intent.
The only thing Farrant was "central" to almost four decades ago were his publicity stunts and ghost story hoaxes. All of which were swiftly exposed.
He had nothing whatsoever to do with the investigation of the case of the Highgate Vampire, as most people now understand and accept.
