A scholar says he's found a secret, a "hidden theme" (as a newspaper describes it) in The Chronicles of Narnia, by C.S. Lewis.

The Telegraph reports:

Each of the seven children's chronicles is based on one of the seven planets that comprised the heavens in medieval astrology, says a scholar whose theory is examined in the programme.

The theory is put forward in a new book titled, Planet Narnia: The Seven Heavens in the Imagination of CS Lewis.

The BBC will reveal all in a documentary.

Name of the film: The Narnia Code.

Just in time for Easter 2009, according to the Telegraph.
