And you are one of the prime culprits, you stick lord in front of your name because you think you're better than everyone else. I am highly educated and have been following Coventry for 30 years, but I don't think I'm better than everyone else.

This twonk, Tommy Atkins, Hibbert, Porky etc etc. absolute cocks who were probably bullied at school.

Summerisle (The Wicker Man)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Summerisle is a fictional island introduced in the 1973 British cult film The Wicker Man.
Summerisle should not be confused with the real-life Summer Isles situated off the coast of Scotland, which are frequently mistaken for the fictional island seen in The Wicker Man.[1]

Much of the island's history is provided within The Wicker Man, particularly by the character of Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee) during a dialogue with the character of Sgt. Howie (Edward Woodward).[2]
According to the film, Summerisle lies off the western coast of Scotland, and once earned a pittance through fishing and sheep farming. In 1868, the (presumably) first Lord Summerisle came to the island, attracted by the volcanic soil and the warm gulf stream surrounding Summerisle, utilising it to grow certain types of fruits and vegetables. In doing so, Lord Summerisle attempted to win over the inhabitants by converting them from Christianity to "the old gods".

When the crops became successful, the inhabitants of Summerisle fully embraced paganism, and the Christian ministers were banished to the mainland. Summerisle continued to be fruitful and prosperous for several years, and the inhabitants continued to worship pagan deities, with particular emphasis on fertility rituals.
The principal events of the film describe the failure of Summerisle's crops, and how the inhabitants lure an outsider from the mainland under false pretences to be sacrificed to their gods in a giant Wicker Man, in the hope that the crops will prosper once again.[2]
No solid layout of the island is given in the film, although notable buildings featured in the film include The Green Man public house, a ruined churchyard, and a small library.
