Defrocked Nunhead Priest


This gentleman (apologies for missing head) is a follower of the Grand Prix priest. If you don’t know who he is, Google will enlighten you. And if you need a good laugh, look at YouTube’s ‘The Dancing Priest’. Cornelius (known as Neil) Horan used to be a priest at the Catholic church in Nunhead… until he was defrocked. Apparently, he was defrocked because of his self-appointed mission to warn about the end of the world. Despite the loss of his priestly status, Horan has carried on with spreading his message through other means, notably running on to the track at Silverstone during the British Grand Prix as well as other attempts at the Olympics Marathon, the Derby and Football World Cup. When he’s not running, he’s dancing an Irish jig. He has performed the jig in various venues including Britain’s Got Talent, 2009. When he dances (and does his sensational running demos) he wears a kilt; it is very short and resembles a mini-skirt. That’s a defrocked priest, then, in a skirt.
