900 Years of Carlisle Cathedral

BBC One - Songs of Praise, 900 Years of Carlisle Cathedral

Rev Kate Bottley explores 900-year-old Carlisle Cathedral with its star-spangled ceiling.

Rev Kate Bottley explores 900 years of history at Carlisle Cathedral, including its star-spangled ceiling, and James Lusted visits a Christian adventure centre in the Lake District.

The Rev Kate Bottley explores Carlisle Cathedral as it celebrates its 900th anniversary. She discovers its monastic origins and joins visitors enjoying a specially commissioned art installation that invites people to 'rest under the stars' and take a closer look at the cathedral’s unique star-spangled ceiling.

Kate visits the nearby village of Wigton to meet Rev Richard Corrie in his chip shop. Alongside helping to fry her own supper, she chats to Richard about how his three unusual jobs – working as a vicar, a radio DJ and chip shop owner – are all part of his ministry.

James Lusted joins young people climbing, walking and splashing their way through the great outdoors at the Kepplewray Centre in the Lake District. He learns about the centre’s Christian ethos and how it makes adventures accessible for young people of all backgrounds and abilities.

With hymns from St Cuthbert’s Carlisle and around the UK.
