International Assignment

on BBC Radio 4 FM

A year ago a new Pope, John Paul II, was installed. Since then he has impressed many millions with his pleas for peace. But others have taken issue with his stern moral pronouncements. Some have even labelled him a ' medievalist '. The BBC's Religious Affairs Correspondent, Gerald Priestland , and correspondents overseas, assess the impact of the new Pope on ordinary Roman Catholics throughout the world.
