The BBC has announced the sixth annual “Faith & Hope” season, a collection of multi-faith religious programming across TV and Radio, reflecting a range of faiths and their festivals taking place in the near future.
Highlights include the BBC One Easter Morning Service from Ripon Cathedral in North Yorkshire, Songs of Praise from Redruth Baptist Church in Cornwall, a programme with BBC Traitors winner “Harry Clark Goes to Rome” and on BBC2, “Pilgrimage: The Road to Holy Island”.
On BBC Radio 4, Easter Sunday worship is live from Canterbury Cathedral, and on Radio 3, the world premiere of Sir James MacMillan’s Angels Unawares, will be featured on Palm Sunday.
There will be a special episode of Celebration Kitchen on the Muslim festival of Eid al-Fitr, ending the season of Ramadan, on BBC One. And in celebration of Spring faith festivals from other faiths, the Asian Network is marking Ramadan and Vaisakhi with a podcast and curated playlists.
