This is a really moving interview and worth listening to if you're facing a Christmas after a bereavement...
How can you face #Christmas when you've just lost your partner? Hear @BekahLegg talking to @DowdMark on losing husband Steve and why, despite the sadness, Christmas is still a season of hope for her. In our new #podcast from @ctvc. thingsunseen.co.uk/podcasts/…
I have produced this programme which is now out as a podcast! It's a joy to be making these documentary features now, having spent so many years in news...I hope you can find the time to listen as it's an unexpected story about idealism against the odds...

"What is truth?" The question Pontius Pilate asked when Jesus was standing in front of him, a key moment in the story of #HolyWeek. Here's @GeorgePitcher with a taster from our new #podcast about Pilate - full thought-provoking version here: thingsunseen.co.uk/podcasts/…
This is a really interesting listen ( says she, who produced it! 😁) Thanks to the panel including @GeorgePitcher
Does the Christian tenet of #forgiveness extend to biblical 'villains' such as Pontius Pilate?
In this #GoodFriday and #Easter edition of @ThingsUnseenPod, the Ven Liz Adekunle is joined by the Rev George Pitcher, writer and Anglican priest; Christian author and musician Chibundu Onuzo; and former homicide detective turned evangelist Paul Gask .

#Ramadan is near, a time of prayer, compassion and self-discipline - so how does all that sit with the anger many Muslims feel over #Gaza? Join Amir Suleman and guests to hear how they prepare for a Ramadan like no other. With @AnitaNayyar. By @ctvc. thingsunseen.co.uk/podcasts/…
My first BBC production, since leaving the BBC! This is a very moving story on the Witness History strand on the BBC World Service ( a great place to find unusual stories and less than 10 minutes long!)
Brand new from the @ctvc Radio team, the amazing story of the #Torah scrolls stolen by the Nazis, brought to and restored at @tweetWLS in 1964 and finally sent out to #Jewish communities all over the world. Presented by @AStrangwayes. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3ct4x…
I really enjoy the Witness History programmes on the BBC World Service. And this one by my colleague @mlanchin is really good...a reminder about Liberation Theology and how upsetting it was for the Vatican!
Now online, the story of @LeonardoBoff, Brazilian theologian and founder father of #LiberationTheology. He tells @mlanchin what it was like to come face to face with Cardinal Ratzinger, later Pope Benedict, to defend his views. A @ctvc production. bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct4xb…
First production in the new job. A pleasure to make - if a somewhat steep learning curve 😅
Now online: The image of the #Madonna and child appears on nearly every #Christmas card. But in most of these images, #Mary is shown as a white woman. Yet there are also #Black Madonnas. In our new #podcast, Liz Adekunle goes out to find some of them. thingsunseen.co.uk/podcasts/…

The Colin Bloom report, a faith review by the UK government, is being accused of unfairly targeting the Sikh community.
The section on Sikh extremism was singled out for particular criticism.

Really important story from my colleague @BBCEmilyUnia
People objecting to new children’s homes say they’re worried about rising crime and falling house prices- but is it just prejudice? I spoke to @lemnsissay @ICHAOrg bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0bltb…
The 8am Sunday Service on the local BBC Radio stations is led by @krishk this week and features voices of the Afghan refugees and people from Hong Kong helped by @WelcomeChurches. It’s a lovely service for the 3rd Sunday in Advent. bbc.co.uk/programmes/p088s9q… #worship #radio – at Hove, England
