He is joined by Catholic commentator Mark Lambert, author of a popular blog called <em>De Omnibus Dubitandum Est</em> and a regular with Dr Ashenden on the <em>Catholic Unscripted</em> YouTube channel, and together they try to “shed some light” on the spirit of the Second Vatican Council and what was actually intended by the documents emanating from the council itself.
