NCR Article


An article in the National Catholic Register 
on the making of

EWTN's The Message of Fatima

It is now more important than ever that Catholics evangelise through the media. For during the last few years we can see a trend the breakdown of the natural moral order. Every month, week, day even we hear of some new social innovation. Yet more LGBT 'rights' and promotions in the Main Stream Media that attack the natural order, many good people are being brainwashed through the media into accepting sexual practises that are plainly out of sync with creation. They say we should keep the Pope and the Church out of the bedroom! However, they do not say the same about Satan and his cohorts?

Please see below for a link to an article by Catholic journalist K.V. Turley on the making of EWTN's The Message of Fatima mini-series. I met him for a brief interview at a London station soon after the series won the television category at the Polish International film festival KSF Niepokalana 2017. This is all very helpful and backs up our work, for I believe we should use the media, especially film and TV more to engage in the battle to save souls and make Catholicism "cool" again.

She would faithfully carry the message of Fatima to the world and when requested by her superiors and when heaven allowed would write of the apparitions. She would have further apparitions from both Our Lady and Our Lord.


She became a Dorothean nun and was given the First Saturdays Devotion to spread in the world, she was also tasked to ask the Pope in union with all the bishops of the world to make the consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart.

The Message of Fatima - Episode Seven

EWTN's The Message of Fatima

Episode Seven

The Miracle of Sun


The People see the Miracle of the Sun
Episode seven of EWTN's The Message of Fatima is to be another hour long programme. In which we cover the October apparition of Our Lady at Fatima. This was a relatively short apparition of Our Lady but it was a prolonged supernatural event and an event that was predicted by Lucia after she had asked Our Lady in an earlier apparition to give the people a sign that this was actually happening, and that the seers were not lying. In this episode we try to the best of our abilities to reproduce the events in Fatima on October 13th 1917 when the sun danced in the sky, spun changed colours, and even came down on the people.


Our Lady of Fatima

Disbelievers, sceptics, and even members of the secular anti-catholic government controlled press saw this event and wrote about it. Many were converted back to the faith and 70,000 people saw what is now known as the Miracle of the Sun.

We also cover the deaths of Francisco and Jacinta and the apparitions of Our Lady to Jacinta in hospital. We end this episode (but not the series there is one more episode to come on the First Saturdays Devotion) with one last apparition of Our Lady at the Cova da Iria, In which Our Lady tells Lucia to go and do what her bishops wants.

Episode seven will be broadcast on EWTN on October 13 at 2pm and 9:30pm in the UK, also during the week all the episodes will be shown consecutively at 2pm and for North America please click here.http://www.ewtn.com/multimedia/schedules.asp?sat=DOME

The Message of Fatima - Press Release

EWTN's 'The Message of Fatima'

nominated for the

Ksf Niepokalana International Film Festival in Poland



We are very pleased that EWTN's 'The Message of Fatima' has been nominated at the Ksf Niepokalana International Film Festival in Poland. This festival in one of the most important in the Catholic media world and I am hoping that this publicity will also lead to a Polish version of the series being made. We hope also that Our Lady is pleased with this series and our attempts to bring her message to as wider audience as possible.


The Message of Fatima has already received a great response from the viewers of EWTN, and has been shown worldwide. It has also been translated into Spanish, for the Spanish speaking world where the series has attracted a very large following. The broadcasting of this series has not been completed yet and has two episodes yet to be shown.

and myself giving direction to JĂșlia Fialho who plays Jacinta 

 The series consists of eight episodes, six of which are dedicated to each apparition of Our Lady in 1917 and being broadcast on their corresponding centenary date. Besides the six episodes on the apparitions of Our Lady, one episode is dedicated to apparition of the Angel and the last one (to be broadcast in November of this year) is dedicated to First Saturdays Devotion.

The whole series is in the docudrama format. EWTN engaged local Fatima actors from Casa do Povo in Fatima for authenticity and was mostly shot on location in and  around Fatima. Our Lady and the Angel were shot in a London studio. We were greatly honour by the number of Fatima experts that took part as well as four bishops and includes Cardinal Stanislaw Dziwisz, Archbishop Emeritus of Krakow, Poland, St John Paul II secretary.


From the Third Part of the Secret dramatisation

 The third part of the Secret sequence was shot on Chobham common near London, and of course this is linked with the assignation attempt on Pope St John Paul II, who said that the message of Fatima is more relevant today than it was in 1917. This is why I particularly wanted to dramatise this scene for Christians are being persecuted more now than in Roman times.

We are currently working on the post-production Episode Seven, which is dedicated to the sixth and final apparition of Our Lady at Fatima. This will be broadcast on October 13th and contains the Miracle of the Sun, which was seen by 70,000 people while the Little Shepherds saw other apparitions of The Holy Family, Our Lord, Our Lady of Sorrows and Our Lady of Carmel.

An Eight Part Docudrama



First Trailer

To celebrate the centenary of the apparitions of Our Lady at Fatima, EWTN have produced an eight episode docudrama series "The Message of Fatima". Filmed last year mainly in Fatima, and also in a London studio. We have engaged some up and coming Catholic actresses and actors to play all the main parts, Our Lady of Fatima, The Three Little Shepherds, The Angel, Sr Lucia etc. 

Our aim was to make one of the most comprehensive film series on Fatima yet produced. The first episode "The Angel of Peace" will be broadcast on May 10 and is mainly dedicated to the apparitions of the Angel in 1916 and also looks at the people of Fatima in the early part of the century.


The second episode "The First Apparition of Our Lady of Fatima" is dedicated to the apparition of Our Lady and will be broadcast on the 13 of May. We also explore the theological context of the message. 

The subsequent apparitions are given their own episodes and will be broadcast on the centenary date throughout the Summer and Autumn of 1917, There will also be a special on the First Saturday Devotion.

The Fatima Hymn adaptation is by Adam Tucker. Adam is also the composer of the soundtrack for the series.

The Fatima Hymn is sung by the soprano Lynne Lee with the choirs of the Dome of Home (Ss Peter, Paul and St Philomena New Brighton) and Bel Canto.
