BBC Radio Scotland - Sunday Morning, 20/12/2015

Two hours of music and conversation from a faith and ethical perspective, plus Richard talks to actress Hannah Gordon.

Richard speaks to star of television and stage Hannah Gordon, an actress who has had a career spanning over 5 decades, becoming a household name after her starring role in Upstairs Downstairs.

An activity synonymous with the festive season - we take a trip to the panto with reporter Bob Dickson, who finds out about a pantomime performance especially for children with additional support needs, and their carers.

Exploring the enduring appeal of those magnificently winged creatures, who are part messenger, part guardian - the angel - with Noorah Al-Gailani, curator of Islamic Civilisations at Glasgow Museums; David Goodman, member of the Jewish Reform Community; and writer and broadcaster Denis Rice.

'Tis the season to be jolly...and to help us be that, we take a nostalgic look at that festive staple, the source of many a theatrical tantrum - the school nativity - with Denis Rice and Gayle Taylor, Associate Minister for Children and Youth, Colinton Parish Church.

A Glaswegian take on one of the world's most famous religious paintings. Iain Campbell, artist-in-residence at St George's Tron Church, explains why he used locals from the Glasgow City Mission for his work of art, Our Last Supper.

Between the forces of good and evil, light and dark, Daniel M. Jones, Founder of the Church of Jedi-ism, and film critic Paul Gallagher, discuss the religious phenomenon of the Jedi Knight; and how the Church has seen a surge in figures with the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
