Scarlet Ribbons: A Priest With Aids

Rosemary Bailey's heartfelt story of the last nine years of the life of her brother, Simon Bailey, vicar of the south Yorkshire village of Dinnington. Rosemary captures the sad drama that consumes Simon as he breaks the news of his illness, first to friends, then to close parishioners, and finally to his family, the church authorities and the media. While slowly succumbing to AIDS, the Rev. Bailey continued to hold services in the parish church, while his parishioners cared for him around the clock through his final months. The story was the subject of a 1995 BBC TV program.
