I was wondering why that message went un-responded in the main list 
;-)

Anyhow, I forgot that bit about the Gray Lady in Chillingham Castle. 

They also had a bit about witch familiars and owls. Some owl expert 
went on to say that owls wouldn't be the ideal creature to deliver 
anything because they can't see object close to their faces and that 
they're messy and rather "stupid".

They went over the correct way to fly a broom and choosing a wand. The 
Wiccan expert said that wands are used to direct or concentrate power.

The Arthurian Legend thing made me think a little, though it hasn't 
propelled me into any shipper camp.

Anyway, here's the link to a program description. It might be too long 
so copy and paste instead.

Amy from D.C. It was good ol' WETA that showed the program Sunday 
about 4 PM despite what the newspaper grids listed. They showed some 
Ed Sullivan program before it (I watched Elvis sing "Don't Be Cruel") 
and kept the tv on that station because another hour of Ed was 
supposed to be on and I wanted to watch the Doors' "Light My Fire".
