Two hours of music and conversation from a faith and ethical perspective, asking what the week's events say about values and beliefs.

Celebrated conservationist, activist, and UN Messenger of Peace, Dr Jane Goodall, brought us closer to our closest relative than we had ever been before. She speaks to Richard about championing the cause of chimpanzees and her pioneering studies which redefined what we know about animal intelligence.

Falling in love can be a dangerous affair, especially in Afghanistan when you come from different backgrounds. Journalist Rod Nordland tells us about Zakia and Ali, and how their relationship put their lives in danger.

As part of our occasional 7 Deadly Sins series, Dr Lesley Orr, theologian and acting chair of the Zero Tolerance Trust; Luke Devlin, Executive Director of Centre for Human Ecology; and Ranald Mair, Chief Executive of Scottish Care, explore how wrath permeates our society, and what we can do about the emotion that can become an uncontrollable pressure cooker. And Scott Miller, who experienced PTSD as a result of serving in the first Gulf War, talks about his own personal battle with anger.

'Oh! It's yersel, ya bugger' - hardly an appropriate address for a man of the cloth, but Church of Scotland minister Jack Kellet has warm memories of the 90 year old life-long member of his parish who greeted him with these words. He shares stories of his long and colourful ministry at South Leith with Richard.
