Programme on Sunday 28th of June. Channel 4. 20:50.
Oh. And the poxy 'Alpha Course'
revelations – channel 4
Channel 4 - RevelationsMy mother always told me as a child that TV was rubbish and I should concentrate on reading or doing something more constructive with my time. Now as an adult I can see her point as my children seen largely addicted to sitting for hours upon end staring at the flickering box hanging on the wall in our lounge. I think the trick is filtering out the rubbish, although sadly it’s not as easy as it sounds. It was just the other week that I said to my wife, ‘I’m not going to watch big brother this year’, so far I’ve not missed a single episode. I keep trying to convince my self that it’s just so I have soming to talk about over the morning cup of coffee in the office, but maybe it’s just that I addicted to bad TV.
Well I’ve notice a show that looks like it might be of more interest than BB. It starts on the 28th June on Channel 4 at seven o’clock, and it’s called revelations. It will be looking at the impact that religion has on believers and non-believers in Britain today. In the first episode ‘how to find God’ author and film maker Jon Ronson asks how do agnostics come to christianity?
Jon is given complete access to an Alpha Course at St Aldate’s Church in Oxford where he documents the whole process.

Looks quite good, actually - it seems from the trailer that most attendees came away realising what a load of crap it was.
I was watching "Bremner, Bird & Fortune", which is much more entertaining...
