All Creatures Great and Small

BBC One - Songs of Praise, All Creatures Great and Small

Another chance to see the Rev Kate Bottley celebrating the blessings pets can bring.

Another chance to see the Rev Kate Bottley at Worcester Cathedral celebrating the blessings pets bring to our lives, and Gemma Hunt learns how a church protects bats!

It’s another chance to see the Rev Kate Bottley celebrating the blessings animals bring to our lives as she takes part in a special pet service in the magnificent Worcester Cathedral. She meets members of the congregation of all shapes and sizes, from goats to cockroaches! She speaks to their accompanying humans about the profound love and support that pets can provide in good times and in bad, and why we should thank God for all of them – even the creepy crawlies and those with negative associations.

In a beautiful ancient church in Northamptonshire, Gemma Hunt discovers a growing new congregation – of bats! She joins local children on a bat walk and speaks to conservationists and church members about a new initiative helping to protect precious bats whilst also keeping churches open for worship.

With hymns and songs celebrating animals and creation from around the UK.
