Bolton Wanderers? I mean Bolton?

(did you ever read the story that one of the KLF was planning to chop his hand off live on stage at the Brits? don't know whether it was true or not, but kinda strange all the same).

His Eminence has it, Bolton it is (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It's_Grim_Up_North)

I don't remember anything about a hand being chopped off. The Brits thing I remember them doing was a version of 3AM Eternal with Extreme Noise Terror, at the climax of which Bill Drummond let fly with a heavy machine gun loaded with blanks into the audience. They were apparantly going to disembowel a dead sheep on stage, but ENT objected because they were vegetarians. Instead the carcass was dumped outside the entrance to the hotel the after-show party was being held at.

Good times, the '90s. Anyway, enough nostalgia, your go Cardinal!

Dunno. If i find the story again, I'll let you know.

Right, an easy one ...

The film "The Pope Must Die" starring Robbie Coltrane was released in the 90s. However, due to much wailing and gnashing of teeth by American Roman Catholics, the film was renamed for the American audience.

What was it called?

(edit: Forgot to change the thread. D'oh!)

That's a different (and much better) film.

You don't need to have seen the film to guess the answer.

The Ayatollah Must Die? No, sorry, that was in bad taste. ;)

The Pope Must... Be Defeated?

The last one is quite close.

Clue: Robbie Coltrane was in this film

Okay, I'm about to go home for the day, so I'll think of one on the way home! ;)

Can an admin lock this one please?
