  • The Flintstones? What could a visit to St Michael's Church, Chagford, Devon have to do with The Flintstones? Well, during my visit a pianist, Sophia Surenovna McKett, was practicing for a concert the next day and kept playing a melody that seemed familiar to me. I jokingly added the text 'Flintstones...we're the Flinstones' over the melody in the video. However, whilst doing research I came across information that confirmed that The Flinstones melody 'is derived from part of the 'B' section of Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 17 Movement 2, composed in 1801/02' - which was what Sophia was playing (amongst, I think, other tunes). Mystery solved! Enjoy my explorations from your sofa ‪@HimInChurch‬

    23:28 it looks like a "raised" church graveyard, a sure sign that the graveyard is very very full, churches would often import soil to maintain an adequate grave depth over time. Even when you think you're not stepping on someone there, there is almost certainly someone beneath your feet.

      Oh, thanks for this information - gives me a bit more reassurance whilst walking through the graves, knowing I probably could not have avoided anyone, anyways!

      Yes, I'm happy to do so, when I'm in that area. 🤗 I looked it up and I live some considerable distance from it, so it's not something that is likely to happen soon. Is it related to your family genealogy or something?
