• Country: England, Northern Ireland Year: 29.11.1964 Dur: 26.18 Catholic Enquiry Centre: The Catholic Enquiry Centre in England advertises itself in newspapers and other periodicals.

  • Country: Northern Ireland Year: 23.05.1989 Dur: 26.00 Arguments between Catholics and Protestants in the 16th century were vigorous if not inflammatory.
