BBC One - Songs of Praise, Whitby

The Rev Kate Bottley visits Whitby, home of Captain Cook and 7th-century saint Hilda.

The Rev Kate Bottley visits Whitby, North Yorkshire, to discover how Quaker values impacted Captain James Cook's life, and how the life of St Hilda of Whitby influenced the town.

The Rev Kate Bottley pays a half-term visit to Whitby in North Yorkshire to discover how Quaker values impacted the life of explorer Captain James Cook, and how the life of St Hilda of Whitby influenced the town. Josie d'Arby visits a Christian-run project in Newcastle which makes lunches during the half-term holiday for children who normally have free school meals. On board a replica of Captain Cook's boat Endeavour, author Vanessa Collingridge explains how Cook conducted himself with honesty and integrity influenced by the Quakers of Whitby. Most of our hymns are from churches across northern England, including One More Step, King of Kings Majesty, Mighty to Save, Oceans, and He Who Would Valiant Be.

Music:
One More Step Along the World I Go from Albert Hall, Nottingham
He Who Would Valiant Be from Christ Church, Birkenhead
