Well, within the rather broad spectrum of Anglicanism, I'd be classified as a 'small c' catholic Anglican or Anglo-Catholic... though I do have some issues with the latter term esp as historically (and in a few places today) Anglo-Catholics are conservative and I lean towards more liberal social teaching especially as concerns the ordination of women. I actually spent a few years exploring a vocation to ministry (was even accepted as a candidate) and the theological college I studied at (for the academic side, vocation was done separately) had a joint faculty made up of Jesuit, Anglican and Uniting Church teachers, with their attendent ordinands, though the bulk of the students were 'lay' people. All bar one of the Jesuit lecturers were fine teaching female ordinands, and that one was very old-school and enjoyed trying to make the female candidates cringe or cry in class. To be fair though, he was a bit of a jerk and wasn't much nicer to anyone else. In terms of sacramental focus and liturgical practise I'd be much closer to the RC line of teaching than the evangelical one. I even regularly pray the rosary.

As for Errol Flynn - he was a Tasmanian, and therefore only sort-of Australian :).
