The Convent

on BBC Two England

4/4. For nearly six weeks the nuns have had to put up with the self-centred behaviour of their guests, who habitually bemoaned the rigour of religious discipline. Tonight, it's time for a showdown, Poor Clares-style. As their internment draws to a close, what have the four modern women learned from a life of prayer and contemplation? They may not have wanted to get to know God, but do they know themselves any better? Victoria and Angela explore the boundaries of convent life, while Debi faces a huge final hurdle. Meanwhile lona, the only volunteer who came with faith, confesses she has had to confront her toughest challenge. Strong language. Director Sandi Scott ; Series producer John Blake
