‘The Da Vinci Code - Cracking or Cracked?’, UK’s first public debate on the film based on Dan Brown’s novel, will be hosted by The Times’ religious affairs correspondent Ruth Gledhill at the Christian Resources Exhibition (CRE), Wednesday.

Conservatives and conspiracy theorists will debate on what they believe is true or false regarding The Da Vinci Code. Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, authors of The Templar Revelation, will contend the fact that Mary Magdalene was not a prostitute but the wife of Jesus, who was besotted by her.

The Templar Revelationcovers issues listed as ‘fact’ at the start of Dan Brown’s novel. It documents a ‘secret history preserved through the centuries but encoded in works of art that shed new light on the foundation of the Christian Church.’
