The Arrival of the Pope - Papal Visit to the UK 2010

Here we have HD video of the Pope arriving in the UK.
Remarkable just how much the whole ordeal resembled the arrival of Emperor Palpatine on the Death Star in Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi. I edited it slightly but I think you can see that it is quite similar :D
Starring:- Pope Benedict XVI as Emperor Palpatine & His Royal Highness Prince Philip Duke of Edinburgh as Darth Vader.

Me undercover as a Pope. Just like how I was Chancellor.

[@sheevpalpatine7720]

You don't know the power of the large chin

[@humphreyaugustus2932]

Once more, the Church will ruuuuuuuule the Galaxehh!!

[@tashonatem4989]

The church pretty much rules the world already.

[@humphreyaugustus2932]

Tashon Atem I hope so...

[@tashonatem4989]

LOL Why? The Roman Catholic church aren't good guys you know.

[@envinyatar5712]

And we shall have faith...

[@victini8360]

Tashon Atem Well, if you’re a Catholic, you’d want everyone to be Catholic as well...

[@SharapovaFan]

1:00 He even walks like Palpatine

[@sprig3432]

He even walks like Darth Sidious, the lack of motor functions on his shoulders, as if he is floating. Must be too much of that dark side energy

[@phil9947]

103 people did not know the power of the Dark Side.

[@Arjetube]

This video would have MILLIONS of hits if you will mention star wars in title or tags

[@joshuapayne6711]

Whoever put this video together is a legend. Humor and truth!

[@seventus]

Empoperer Palpadictine

[@8158bolga]

Aside from the lack of a hood and the color of his clothes the Pope does look like Emperor Palpatine.

[@omanyte10]

This video randomly popped up in my head. This is a gem.

[@ThomasWilliams89]

So does Philip eventually throw the Pope over a balcony?

[@M.A.C.01]

Does this mean prince Charles is luke?

[@leux_godd]

So the Devil is Yoda?🤔

"My friends believe that nothing will happen to them when they die." Pope "Oh, I'm afraid that the fires of hell will be quite operational when your friends die. >:)."

[@Jason987262]

Put a hood on this guy and he's Sidious for sure.

[@tashonatem4989]

Totally, probably just as evil to, if not more.

[@isaaczelinski2516]

The wind is working on that, jedi.

[@arx3516]

You should have seen him when he was cardinal, with the black and red robes!

[@andrewsenf7880]

I am a Catholic myself, yet I love how funny and well done this video is. XD The force is strong in you. do it.

[@enexe6229]

now you will experience the full power of the curch side

[@TheOnlyGHOST1015]

Lol never gets old

[@PaxAmericana24]

at 1:12 you can tell he's really getting into character! He even puts on a hooded cloak over his head! Bravo!

[@Anteraika]

One of the greatest KZbin video ever. Correspondance between the two scenes is just simply perfect and even the essence of characthers look the same.

[@cripplehawk]

So this is how the Germans won the World cup. They had a Sith Lord doing a battle meditation!!!!

[@drzorn8885]

He Sherlock, the Argies have the Pope now.

[@Archer25001003775]
