Further Information:

Judas is the villain of the Easter Story, a byword for treachery, but does he deserve all the contempt that has been heaped upon him over the centuries?

Catholic writer Peter Stanford feels sympathy for the man who was once deemed, β€˜the wickedest man that ever lived’, whilst poet Damian Walford-Davies is inspired by this complex figure, the man who β€˜killed Jesus with a kiss’.

Featuring contemporary stories of betrayal – from marital infidelity to disloyal whisperings on anonymous internet blogs, or the betrayal of young children – the programme asks whether there isn’t something of Judas within all of us?
