Lesley Garret advert for her new CD

[Bert]

I just saw an advertisement on Channel 4 (about 17:20, 24/11/08) for Lesley Garret's new CD. One of the songs whose title appeared on the screen was 'Angus Dei'! I thought that was pretty funny, but didn't know who else to tell.

That's funny?

[Bert]

Yes, because it should be 'Agnus Dei', and they've spent thousands on producing the advert and it must have been checked by many people before it went out. It's not hilarious, I admit. Perhaps it's a song about an Italian relative of Angus Deayton.

It seems as though it is not an uncommon mistake. I just got 1790 hits on sites from the UK alone. 29100 on the whole web. Many references are to the same source, of course.
