MOVIE-maker Peter Copestake will remember a ecumenical church service marking Colne's centenary for the rest of his life.

Peter and the Pendle Movie Makers have been compiling their long-awaited video of the Songs of Praise service.

He said: "I must have heard some parts of the service 30 or more times in the course of editing it."

The Songs of Praise video is now available to order from the Rector of Colne, Rev. Peter Mott. The £7.50 price includes a contribution to the restoration fund at St Bartholomew's Church.

The event began with a short organ recital by Bob Booth and the music has been used to accompany shots of Colne and local beauty spots taken during the autumn especially for the film.
