Viewpoint: The Architect and the Church

BBC One

Wed 27^th Apr 1966, 22:50 on BBC One London

George G. Pace is questioned by The Ven. Hetley Price.
With The Ven. George Youell, Canon Philip Lamb

George Pace is architect in charge of many of our finest cathedrals and parish churches. Yet he is also the designer of new, modern churches and of striking additions to old ones. In this programme he describes the discipline required to raise or to preserve a building which is 'a perpetual act of worship in its mere existence'.
