Episode 2
A behind-the-scenes look at the lives of country vicars. The Rev Nicholas Lowton has come up with a plan that will bring in radical change - champing, or 'camping at church'.
The church may be struggling, but there are signs of hope. New life, new ideas and new vicars will help it to survive and prosper in future. We meet Matthew Cashmore, a trainee. He has turned his back on a successful executive lifestyle and is moving with his family to Hereford to start a new life in the clergy. But first he has to be ordained at a grand ceremony in Hereford Cathedral.
In the Black Mountains, the Rev Nicholas Lowton believes his churches will have to adapt or die, so he has come up with a plan of action that will bring in radical change. In one tiny remote church, he has seen an opportunity to offer champing, or 'camping at church'. Now he needs to test it out.
In the idyllic surroundings of Much Wenlock in Shropshire, Matthew Stafford is welcoming new life into the church by baptising twins Ollie and Charlie. He needs to speak up - they are in fine voice.
