ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ 2 series Pilgrimage returned to our screens last Friday, taking celebrities along the North Wales Pilgrimsβ Way. Tony is joined by two of the Pilgrims, Traitor celebrity Amanda Lovett and comedian Eshaan Akbar, as they reflect on the spiritual and sometimes challenging journey they embarked upon.
Donald Smith, Director of the Scottish International Storytelling Festival talks about his life and career, sharing with Tony his passion for storytelling and why he chose not to follow his father and become a Church of Scotland minister.
In the second hour of the programme, Tony is joined by Quaker and Author Alastair McIntosh, The Very Reverend Lorna Hood, former Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church Of Scotland and Ronnie Convery, Director of Communications of The Archdiocese of Glasgow, to explore the relevance of the Easter Story.
On this most important day in the Christian calendar, the panel reflect on the concepts of hope and redemption in the Easter story.
The panel explore the integral nature of suffering in relation to Easter, what this message can teach us in the modern world and the different ways of looking at suffering, globally and individually.
With Easter spending expected to rise to Β£1.9 billion in the UK this year, the guests ponder whether the commercialisation of Easter has gone too far.
And they share personal Easter memories from across their faith traditions.
