Hallelujah!

For 42 years, Emily Ridley has fought a tireless battle against the Devil and his works. Now, it seems her uncompromising brand of evangelism has fallen out of favour.

Emily believes that Brigthorpe is teeming with unrepentant sinners. Persuading them to turn their backs on the Devil is proving more difficult than she imagined.

Emily's first counselling session confirms her very worst fears: behind the net curtains of the pleasant little town is a snake pit of original sin!

Emily's latest door-to-door collection for the poor yields little more than £1.20, two 'drop dead's and an improper suggestion. Then she opens the poor box...

Emily's new Senior Citizens' Luncheon Club gets off to a flying start - with an even more interesting finish.

Emily takes delivery of a new mobile canteen, but attempts to offer tea, sympathy and a bowl of soup to the poor and needy don't work out quite as she intended, especially when a ham sandwich causes an embarrassing fall at Yorkshire Television that makes the protestor a hero!

With Emily in hospital, struck down by a renegade ham sandwich, Sisters Alice Meredith and Dorothy Smith are left to run the Citadel. Their approach is quite unlike Emily's!
