Priest adds filters while vicar goes on fire

A priest accidentally switched on his video filters as he attempted to conduct an online mass during the Italian lockdown.

The video captures Paolo Longo as he steps back from the camera to begin his live stream.

However, several hilarious filters start to appear over the priest’s face.

In the clip, Paolo Longo stands beside a cross and alter, dressed in robes, while a digital helmet appears on his head.

Meanwhile, Rev Stephen Beach, the vicar from St Budeaux Parish Church in Plymouth, was delivering his online sermon like many churches during the coronavirus outbreak, when the livestream was interrupted.

His sweater suddenly caught fire while sitting too close to a candle.

“Oh dear, I’ve just caught fire. Oh my word!” said the vicar, before extinguishing the fire.
