Next week, the Holy Father will go to Great Britain for a state visit. A poll commissioned by The Tablet [1] shows what Britons are thinking about the upcoming visit. It makes for interesting reading.

Additionally, starting today, our coverage of the papal trip here at Distinctly Catholic commences with a week of Q & A with editors from The Tablet. Next week, we will hear from several Newman scholars about the Pope's beatification of Cardinal Newman while in the UK.
