THIS IS HOW "MIRACLES" ARE ESTABLISHED!
"DIVINE-LIGHT"FOR CAMERAMAN UNDER DARK CONDITIONS!
"During 'something beautiful for god',there was an episode where we were taken to a building that mother Teresa called the house of the dying.Peter Chafer,the director said,'Ah,well,it is very dark in here.Do you think that we can get something?'.And we had just taken delivery at the BBC of some new film made by Kodak,which we hadn't had time to test before we left,i said to Peter,"well we may as well have to go."So we shot it.And when we got back several weeks latter,a month or two later,we are sitting in the rushes theater at Ealing studios and eventually up come the shorts of the house of the dying.And it was surprising.You could see every detail.And i said,"that is amazing;that is extraordinary".And i was going to go on to say,you know,three chairs for Kodak. I didn't get a chance to say that though,because Malcolm,sitting in the front row,spun around and said,"it is divine light! It is Mother Teresa.You will find that it's divine light,old boy." And three or four days later i found that i was being phoned by journalists from London newspapers,who were saying things like:"we hear you've just come back from India with Malcolm Muggeridge and you were witness of a miracle".
