Reverend Kate Bottley, the vicar from Channel 4's Gogglebox is fast becoming a TV favourite. She talks to Cathy about her life and her faith.

Its 500 years since John Knox, the Protestant preacher who was a leading figure in the Reformation in Scotland, was born. The controversial clergyman still manages to stir passions. He's ardently loved by some and passionately despised by others. Reverend Dr Nikki MacDonald , Minister for the Upper Clyde Parish in South Lanarkshire and author Harry Reid, who's written about the Reformation, join Cathy to discuss the man behind the myth.

A new coalition of civic leaders in Scotland has just been launched to examine the impact of welfare reforms on Scotland. The Scottish Leaders Welfare Group is made up of people from Scotland's churches and trade unions, local authorities and voluntary sector. Father Thomas Boyle, Parish Priest at Our Lady of Lourdes in Bishopton joins Cathy to explain its aims.
