THE former Bishop of Manchester became the focus of attention at a meeting of Worcester Camcorder Club.

The Rt Rev Christopher Mayfield - who has retired to Worcester - was interviewed by guest speaker John Bennett who was giving tips to members on how to prepare for a competition next year called An Interview.

Dr Mayfield, an ardent Worcester Warriors and county cricket supporter, discussed his life before entering the church while members attempted to make a video of the talk.

Ruth Bennett, publicity officer for the group, said he also related his time as Bishop during the Millennium, the Commonwealth Games and discussed speaking in the House of Lords.

"It was an extremely entertaining interview," she added.
