In a time of huge division - both in politics and society - and in the light of many calls by public figures for "unity" in 2017, Roy asks what unity is, and if it's achievable.

The country is said to be more disunited today than at any time in recent memory. As well as huge political uncertainty there's division in areas from the gap between the comfortable and the struggling to relationships between the generations. There have been many calls for reconciliation. But what would that look like? Would it mean giving up what you believe? And how could it be achievable?

With Roy Jenkins are: The Rev Aled Edwards - Chief Executive of Cytun (Churches Together in Wales); Lucy Williams - a hospital social worker in Torfaen and a member of the international Focolare movement, inspired by the Christian gospel, which aims to build a united world; Dr Matteo Bonotti - lecturer in political theory at Cardiff University; and the Rev Dr Peter Francis, warden of Gladstone's Library at Hawarden: a place dedicated to dialogue, debate and learning.
