Episode description

Hannah Scott-Joynt is joined by regular co-host Leo Devine who reflects with her on the main religious news from the past week and looks forward to Christmas. They are joined by regular RMC journo Amardeep Bassey; visual artist, photographer, and Jameel scholar Shaista Chishty, and the Rev Kate Bottley, who help them understand the enduring appeal of Christmas not only to Christians but also to Sikhs, Muslims, and people of no particular faith who just like the odd carol and getting together to celebrate. What is it about the Christmas story that gives it such wide appeal? The different faiths represented discover a shared feeling around the importance of community, Christmas TV schedules, and celebrating the birth of this significant child.
