Not a pope but a dope... Fake Popemobile pulled over by police

Police pulled over a fake Popemobile this morning as it drove past Buckingham Palace.

Bookmakers Paddy Power had staged the stunt in a vehicle exactly like the one Benedict XVI is using to make his progress through the capital.

It even had a man dressed as the Pope sitting in the back.

Scotland Yard, on high alert for the Pope's state visit, were not impressed.
