Krippenspiel
Lady Madeline Lees (née Pelly) was a passionate Christian with a desire to communicate the story of Jesus. After organizing the local school Nativity play for many years, she decided it was time to produce something that could be shown around the world. So she roped in the whole village as actors, retired actor Gerald Rawlinson as a narrator, plus extras from Poole, Upton and other villages to create two successful amateur religious films, "A Voice Crying in the Wilderness" (1958) and "Messiah", released in 1960
