Jesus line derails TV train of thought

For more than six divine minutes, a mysterious ghostly voice repeatedly told Seven Network viewers in Australia: "Jesus Christ one of the Navarines" during a documentary on a train disaster screened the other night.

Shortly after Mayday started at 7.30pm on the network, the unknown voice was heard while the documentary's images continued.



Channel Seven was flooded with 300 calls from viewers regarding what will undoubtedly become one of TV's memorable moments.

A Seven spokesman said a technical glitch was responsible for the religious message being broadcast in Victoria and NSW.

The spokesman said the network was always "spreading the good word", but not in a biblical sense.

Whilst the newspaper report says the audio was saying "Jesus Christ one of the Navarines", it sounds like something different to me.
