Earlier in the week I learnt that Exeter was staging The Passion in the streets today, so camera armed I went to see the event. It began with a service in the Cathedral and a procession through the town. I found it in Bedford Square and got a space close to the front of a big crowd of people. where this lady was the  signing interpreter. and a Roman soldier  really looked the part. Mary’s tears washed the feet of Jesus. Judas betrayed Jesus to the scribes and Pharisees. Elders of the tribe watched

While a blind man told how Jesus had restored his sight.     Then Jesus was brought to  the council of High Priests.

Je was taken before Pontius Pilate, who spoke with Jesus, then asked the people three times, why Jesus should be crucified.

The crowd only shouted ‘Crucify him’

And Jesus was taken away

with Judas looking…
