from Clifton
The village of Clifton sits on the edge of the Avon Gorge, just ten minutes walk from
Bristol's city centre. It is best known for Brunei's famous suspension bridge, built over 100 years ago, and more recently for its Roman
Catholic Cathedral of St Peter and St Paul, the newest cathedral in Britain, where
Christians from the area have come together to sing their favourite hymns.
Cliff Michelmore comes to Clifton to hear about the wedding that almost didn't take place. Granville and Sandra Sykes postponed their engagement when Granville contracted cancer and entered hospital for extensive treatment. He tells the amazing story of how God sustained him through his darkest hours.
Christ is made the sure foundation (Westminster Abbey); God is love, let heaven adore him (Abbot's
Leigh); Lord. for tomorrow and its needs (Providence); Jesus Christ you sacrificed; Great is thy faithfulness; When I survey the wondrous cross (Rockingham); Let all mortal flesh keep silence (Picardy); Thy hand, 0 God, has guided (Thornbury);

The Rock That Doesn't Roll Cliff Richard became a Christian 20 years ago. At the time the pop pundits predicted that his conversion would lose him his following among young people - but today Cliff is more popular than ever.
In this Everyman profile Cliff Richard talks about the private side of his life, and the claims that Christian morality makes on his personal philosophy, lifestyle and sexual conduct. With performances from the Albert Hall and other gospel tours, this film sets out to explore the feelings, questions and beliefs behind Britain's biggest pop phenomenon.
