The existence of an early Stuart Puritan movement is reconsidered in this book. It examines the ways in which Puritan clergymen encouraged greater sociability with their like-minded colleagues, both in theory and in practice, to such an extent that they came to define themselves as a peculiar people, a community distinct from their less faithful rivals. These voluntary communal rituals encouraged a view of the world divided between us and them. This provides a context for a renewed examination of the thinking behind debates on ceremonial nonconformity and reactions to the Laudian changes of the 1630s. From this the book presents a fresh perspective on arguments about emigration and church government, arguments that proved crucial to Parliamentarian unity during the English Civil War.
Rogers's diary offers a direct and personal expression of the meaning of English Puritanism on the eve of the civil war. Samuel Rogers began his diary just before his twenty-first birthday. He was a godly minister from godly stock - his grandfather, father and uncle were all part of the Puritan Movement - and his diary begins as Samuel finishes hiseducation at Emmanuel College, Cambridge. Samuel expresses his intense loneliness as chaplain to the unsatisfactory Dennys of Bishops Stortford, and his efforts to obtain comfort from the nearby godly community - including visitsto Wethersfield, where his father was lecturer. His isolation eases, and his diary ends, shortly after he is appointed chaplain to the family of Lady Mary de Vere, whose contacts with prominent members of the godly he details in his pages. The diary's unrivalled view, from a day-to-day puritan perspective, of what the 1630s were like for a godly minister 'in the battlefield' makes it a valuable record. For Rogers, everything is of religious relevance: in addition to the social detail of the diary there is also a real and persuasive revelation of the spiritual meaning of Puritanism.

Travelling from twentieth-century East Berlin to sixteenth-century Strasbourg, the Doctor encounters creatures from other realities: monsters beneath the waves, and human beings determined to exploit their fellow man. But how long can he survive without a friend? In this release, Peter Davison returns as the Fifth Doctor, in the first of two new releases which pick up where 2019's Warzone/Conversion left off. This anthology release is compiled of four adventures which are loosely connected in that they see the Doctor travelling alone. CAST: Peter Davison (The Doctor), Laura Aikman (Mary Wade), Timothy Blore (Peter Meier/Lucas), Wayne Forester (Clement/Dr Richard Alley/Gerhardt), Kate Harbour (Agatha/Teuthis/Margareta). Other parts played by members of the cast.
River Song finds many amusements away from the Doctor. Not least of them is solving impossible mysteries, cracking insoluble crimes. Sometimes she’s Melody, sometimes she’s River, but she’ll always unravel the case. Episodes: 7.1 Colony of Strangers by James Goss. On the bleak Nordic colony of Bondar, bodies are washing up on the beach. The Mayor and the police are mystified. But then a prime suspect turns up. A suspect who might be their best hope of solving the case. 7.2 Abbey of Heretics by Lizbeth Myles. Outside the walls of a remote 12th Century Abbey, England is at war. Inside, a strange sickness runs rife, and there are rumours of a devil in the woods. Death stalks the novices. When Sister Melody arrives in search of a book, she may be their only salvation. 7.3 Barrister to the Stars by James Kettle. River stands accused of murder. Her one hope is being allowed to choose the legal system under which she’ll be tried. Enter Roger Hodgkiss: curmudgeonly barrister, plucked from a 20th Century English courtroom. He may be out of his depth, but he’ll always stand up for the underdog. 7.4 Carnival of Angels by Roy Gill. New York. 1930s. Melody Malone is new in town and her detective agency is called on to solve an impossible murder. River’s investigations lead her to a curious carnival ride, offering trips to either Heaven or Hell. But with Angels in waiting, Heaven may not be the best choice… CAST: Alex Kingston (River Song), Timothy Blore (Luke Sullieman), Charles Armstrong (Karl), Annette Badland (Judge/Computer), Aurora Burghart (Sister Patrick), Annabelle Dowler (Integer/Contingent), Daniel Easton (Dean Cray), Jaye Griffiths (Sister Ursula), Clive Hayward (Emperor of Eternal Abundance/Duke of Ferrox/Last of the Unnatural Children/Marty Stone), Paul Heath (Thomas/System), Janet Henfrey (Sister Magdalene), Glen McCready (Robosurgeon/Creature/Tors/Tab Kowalski), Wanda Opalinska (Gudrun/Espen), David Rintoul (Hodgkiss), Issy Van Randwyck (Miss Quirke), Robert Whitelock (Stark/Professor).
