How effectively can the Church Administration promote the pilgrimage tourism...Christos Petreas
Porter’s 4-Ps of marketing have supported a generation of aspiring tourism promoters in the execution of their duties and the fulfillment of their aspirations. Are the 4-Ps effective for all forms of tourism, and can they bring results when applied to pilgrimage tours and religious travel?
The paper tries to assess the importance of the 4-Ps as factors for the development of the different dimensions of religious tourism (pilgrimage, culture, arts, traditions, etc.), from the experiences drawn from the implementation of a “development and promotion strategy” set in motion by the Synodical Office of the Holy Synod of the Church of Greece. The activities, proposed in the May 2012 “strategy paper for pilgrimage tours”, approved by the Holy Synod, and in the December 2012 “Collaboration Protocol”, signed between the Church of Greece and the Ministry of Tourism, are assessed as part of a 4-Ps marketing strategy for the development of this special interest form of tourism.
There is an effort to assess each “p” as to a number of factors, in order to be able to provide guidance for further actions to be undertaken for the development of religious tourism.

Introduction to the Hypothesis: Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix
The idea that Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix stems from a mix of historical anomalies, physical resemblances. and a penchant for myth-making that surrounds celebrities. While Jimi Hendrix's official death in 1970 is well-documented. some theorists suggest that Hendrix did not die but instead reinvented himself as Morgan Freeman. a man who would become one of Hollywood's most revered actors. This article aims to delve into the various aspects of this hypothesis. examining its origins, the supporting arguments. and the cultural impact of such a theory.
The Genesis of the Theory

Jimi Hendrix, born Johnny Allen Hendrix in Seattle, Washington, on November 27, 1942. and Morgan Freeman, born on June 1, 1937, in Memphis, Tennessee, have lived very different lives. But, proponents of the theory suggest that the five-year age difference is negligible and point to Freeman's late start in his acting career as evidence of a life lived before under a different identity.
The Disappearance and Reappearance
Jimi Hendrix's death in 1970 at the age of 27 is a well-documented event. But, theorists argue that Hendrix's death staged. and he reemerged as Morgan Freeman. They highlight Freeman's rise to prominence in the early 1970s. coinciding with Hendrix's supposed death. Freeman's first significant acting role came in 1971 on the children's television show "The Electric Company," a mere year after Hendrix's passing.
Physical Resemblances
Facial Structure and Features
One of the most compelling arguments for the hypothesis that Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix lies in the physical resemblance between the two men. Analyzing photographs, proponents point out similarities in facial structure. particularly the cheekbones and jawline. Both men have a distinctive gap between their front teeth. which is rare and often highlighted as a critical point of similarity.
Voice and Mannerisms

STG£7m revenue injection into the region (Ross, 2003).
• Braveheart brought STG£100m in revenue to Stirling (Hydra Associates,
1997)
8. Methodology
• Strategic conversations were carried out in July and August 2006, with
30 of the key tourism and film stakeholders in Yorkshire and the UK.
• All respondents had extensive and specialist knowledge of the specific
matters pertaining to Yorkshire’s tourism industry/U.K. film industry.
• Face to face interviews were deemed appropriate as it provided the
opportunity to strike a rapport with interviewees’.
• This enabled the researcher to explore the relevant issues identified by
the literature and previous research (2003).
• It was helpful that the researcher is not from or living in Yorkshire,
therefore any possible interviewer bias was minimised.
9. Empirical Research
Issue 1: The authenticity of the destinations tourism product
• Tourists want to experience the authenticity of Yorkshires’ tourism product
(Morton, 2006; Coates, 2006; Rhodes, 2006, Barker, 2006, Dodd, 2006).
• Film tourists can be attracted to an area not only through ‘positive’ images but
also through the narrative and characters of the film/television that makes them
want to see where the characters’ ‘live’ and where the story is set (Elliott, 2006).
• Yorkshire is now trying to present a more modern (Rowe-Marshall, 2006).
Issue 2: The importance of tourism to the wider development of the
Yorkshire region
• Yorkshire based television series’ have increased visitors numbers to Yorkshire
(Dodd, 2006; Fernandez-Young, 2006; Guffogg, 2006; Kibblewhite, 2006 and
Rhodes, 2006.
• Goathland has had an increase in their tourist numbers from 200,000 tourists
annually when Heartbeat begun in 1991 to 1.5 million since (Breakell, 2006).
• The newly developed television series The Royal has the same potential
(Breakell, 2006).
• There are few measures in place to evaluate these impacts (Inze, 2006).
10. Empirical Research
Issue 3: The television induced tourism phenomenon
• The quickest way of selling a place is by being in a film
(Edgington, 2006).
• The number of pure television induced devotees is very small
(Fernandez-Young, 2006).
• The multiplier effect continues - the growth of DVD’s this and
the cinema reinvention (Dickins, 2006).
• Television induced tourism is a great way to capitalise on the
positive portrayal of destinations on the screen (Clewley, 2006).
Issue 4: The influence of television programmes
• TV programmes appeal because of their localness, longevity
(Morton, 2006) and their books (James Herriot) (Dodd, 2006).
• An audience will have a greater exposure through weekly
viewing of a television programme (Elliot, 2006; Guffogg, 2006
and Inze, 2006).
• Tempest (2006) maintained that the Last of the Summer Wine is
charming and uses its location well. All Creatures Great and
Small is another great example of TV longevity.
11. Empirical Research
Issue 5: The importance of movies, videos and television
• There are many ways of seeing an image; film, television, internet, posters,
mobile phones and print (Rhodes, 2006).
• The marketing efforts undertaken with the intent of profiting from television
induced tourism is well supported by the stakeholders (Elliott, 2006; Fernandez-
Young, 2006; Smyth, 2006).
• Movies, videos can portray a more realistic visual portrayal of a destination than
literature (Clewley, 2006).
• If books tie in with a movie, they become even more successful - Master and
Commander, Dickens and Bleak House novels.
• The strongest international products for Yorkshire are the Brontë and Herriot
books connection (Wragge, 2006; Morton, 2006).
12. Empirical Research
Issue 6: Television induced tourism can add significant benefits to the
development of a destination
• It can generate mass appeal and awareness through its scale of portrayal for a
destination (Clewley, 2006).
• The UK is seen as a success story in relation to this and quantifiable research is
currently being undertaken by the UK Film Council (Steele, 2006).
• The benefits of such tourism include;
• Increased employment in the tourist industry (Shields, 2006),
• Increased product sales (Coates, 2006),
• New hotels (Breakell, 2006),
• The production crew staying in the area (Dickins, 2006),
• Extends the season from March – November (Barker, 2006),
• Increases a feeling of pride in the area (Elliott, 2006),
• It can make a destination more recognisable Rowe-Marshall (2006).
• Movie induced tourism contributes financial factors and it is an ongoing positive
thing for the little villages (Rhodes, 2006) but what happens the local economy
when it stops? (Barker, 2006).
13. Empirical Research
Issue 7: The drawbacks of television induced tourism to a destination
• If a private residence is used in a production (The Monarch of the Glen), tourists
have might seek out the house which can have a negative impact on the owner.
• The image reflected in the movie may not be complementary to the destination
brand or accurately reflect the reality in the destination (Inze, 2006).
• DMO’s have no control over the destination image portrayed (Tempest, 2006).
• Negative visitor management issues have arisen in Yorkshire (Barker, 2006)
• Congestion (Morton, 2006) - Goathland and Aysgarth Falls (Shields, 2006).
• Problems arise if the television series is a success and no infrastructure has been put
in place to maximise the opportunity or manage the demand (Inze, 2006).
• disruption to the locals (Dickins, 2006) and also the creative use of a filming location
(displacement) (Guffogg, 2006).
• The negative effects can often overwhelm a smaller destination (Clewley,
2006) e.g. Heartbeat and Goathland
• If a series uses a location heavily, the disruption can be quite tiring for the residents.
• Tourists are using it as the base for touring the area (Kibblewhite, 2006).
• Erosion had a major impact on the village.
• Tourists are also disappointed that Goathland is in the 21st century and not in the 1960’s as it
is set (Fernandez-Young, 2006).
14. Empirical Research
Issue 7: Television programmes can induce people to visit destinations
• Supported by the stakeholders (Barker, 2006; Dodd, 2006; Elliott, 2006; Evans,
2006 and Steele, 2006).
• Tourists seeking such sites demonstrate 'irresistible drive' to find locations to
which an emotional link has been forged through television (Reeves, 2003).
• Inze (2006) stated that the television induced tourism phenomenon seems likely
given the fact that tour operators have begun creating television branded tours
to meet the demand.
• The Herriot (Yorkshire Dales), Heartbeat (Goathland) and Summer Wine (Holmfirth)
country brands still encourage people to visit these areas (Inze, 2006).
15. Conclusions
• Television induced tourism is an untapped and little understood
field of research.
• In the past, it has been incidental to the programme itself with
little consideration given to the long-term effects filming may
have on a region.
• There are both positive and negative impacts of filming in
Yorkshire.
• Issues - future development, overcrowding, congestion, increasing
real estate values community pride and economic benefits.
• It contributes economically to the region and has led to an increase
in employment.
• There is a need to study other regions most notably Australia
and the USA for the filming of popular television series.
• It would also be of interest to study the difference between the
towns and villages that consistently succeed and those that
don’t.
• Yorkshires’ tourism organisations can maintain long-term
survival through developing a better understanding of the
tourism impacts.
16. Conclusions
• The authenticity of their tourism product needs to be contemplated as visitors
now wish to get behind the scenes and learn more about foreign cultures.
• To provide such authenticity and maintain the daily routine of their community is
one of the great challenges facing the residents.
• However, for such positive impacts to outweigh the negative, tourism does need
to receive more attention from tourism authorities and be properly planned at an
earlier stage than often actually occurs.
• It is crucial to keep abreast of what is shooting where and maintaining the
relationship between the production company, the local authorities, tourism
officers and the screen agencies is the only way initially.

Harry Potter was the first film specific map concentrating on ‘destination experience’.Warner Brothers gave permission to use logo and licence for a year – Visit Britain built the destination experience from the theme of the film ‘ If you love the film then you’ll love Britain !’. Discover The Magic Of Britain.
Designed to leverage off the film to fulfil the objective of promoting the UK as a whole, it featured 8 locations from the movie with a further 32 attractions around Britain based on 7 themes associated with mysticism and magic such as steam trains, witches/wizards/ghosts/
