The Light of Experience: 1: An Invisible Wave of Love

on BBC Two England

A series of eight programmes
Experiences of joy, sorrow, bereavement, doubt - or inner moments of truth that may defy rational explanation. In these programmes people are invited to give first-hand accounts of something that has real personal significance for them.
When Labour MP John Stonehouse disappeared off the coast of Miami in November 1974, most people regarded it as a political scandal, but to his wife Barbara it was rejection by the man she loved. Then she received a huge amount of public sympathy and it gave her the courage she needed to carry on. "It was like a religious experience and gave me tremendous inner strength."
