Undercover Bishop’ documetary to top RTÉ new season

A (SO FAR) UNIDENTIFIED Irish Catholic bishop is to go “undercover” for a two-part programme to be aired on RTÉ in the next few months.

An RTÉ spokesperson told TheJournal.ie that the name of the bishop could not yet be disclosed because the programme had not yet been completed. 

A press release detailing upcoming shows to be broadcast on the national broadcaster includes ‘Undercover Bishop’ in its religious programming schedule. 

The release describes it as:
In a 2-part Would You Believe? Special our Undercover Bishop asks searching questions about what the Church – and what a Bishop – is for, as one Irish bishop dispenses with the deference-inducing trappings of his job to mix with people unawares.
