    I have only heard one of these three heavies give a talk at a DC a few years back, but occasionally on the forum their names crop up.

    I know they are based in the British Bethel.

    Does anyone know these guys personally? Are they anointed?

    Ron Drage and Peter Ellis are members of the Britain branch committee.

    Ron Drage was a long-time travelling overseer before going into London Bethel in the 1970s. He spent many years in the 'spiritual wilderness' after he married Barbara, who was either the girlfriend or fiancee (I don't remember which) of a Brooklyn 'heavy.'

    Peter and Joyce Ellis went to Gilead, spent some years in a foreign assignment, then returned to travelling work in Britain before going into London Bethel, some time in the 1980s I think.

    Paul Gilles went into London Bethel from high school. He was overseer of the Public Affairs department until the GB consigned it to the dust, although he still seems to be the Society's official spokesman in Britain. He is widely tipped as the next branch-committee-member-in-waiting. His wife Judith is Australian and used to pioneer is Papua New Guinea.

    Thanks Blondie and IT Support.

    I remember reading a post about a DC 2 years ago, where Peter Ellis said there was "no new light about 1914".
