BBC Radio 4 - Sunday, Andy Burnham, Jonathan Sacks and others celebrate Sunday's 50 birthday.

Emily Buchanan celebrates Sunday's 50 birthday.

Emily Buchanan celebrates Sunday's 50 years of reporting ethical and religious issues here in the UK and around the world.

In this special edition of Sunday celebrating 50 years of religious news and current affairs broadcasting, we are joined by one of the great religious and philosophical thinkers of our time, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, to discuss the media's changing relationship with religion and Judaism and his hopes for the future. 

The Sunday programme has Manchester in it's DNA, broadcasting from the area for the past 26 years. The Mayor of Manchester Andy Burnham talks to Emily Buchanan about Manchester, community, politics and faith. 

And Emily is joined by a panel of young people of different faiths to discuss identity, race and religion in 2020 and to hear what they want to see in the reporting of religion into the future.
