A bishop has swapped sermons for the studio as he records an album of rock classics.
It sounds like a storyline from the Vicar of Dibley , but Rt Rev Jonathan Meyrick, the Bishop of Lynn is determined to raise money with his musical venture.
He hasn't picked ballads with a holy flavour either, but instead plumped for hip-grinding tracks like Satisfaction by the Rolling Stones, Wild Thing by the Troggs, and the more melodious Nights in White Satin by the Moody Blues.
Perhaps Living on a Prayer and Stairway to Heaven would have been more appropriate?
The Bishop of Lynn
The 58-year-old said the idea came after he performed on stage in King's Lynn, Norfolk, as a guest vocalist with a local band.
The traditionally subversive genre might seem an unlikely choice for a conservative Christian to choose but the former Dean said he was not aiming to be a rock god.
Instead he hopes the collection of 1960s hits will raise funds for Tapping House Hospice and a campaign to restore St Nicholas Chapel in King's Lynn to its former glory.
He said: "I have always been involved in performance on an amateur basis.
"I have a broad taste in music and in the past my singing has ranged from light opera to Gilbert and Sullivan and music from the sixties.
"I have done a lot of work with choral societies but I can tailor my voice to fit the era.
"The hospice is a key charity in my area and the restoration appeal is very important so I hope to raise a good amount of money - but I'm not looking to top the charts."
The bishop previously appeared on ITV's Stars in Their Eyes dressed as Reg Presley and singing Wild Thing.
