Holy Week TV: The Passion


During Holy Week 2008 BBC1 will broadcast The Passion, a dramatic re-telling of the last days of Jesus. The series will be shown in peak time and will be seen by many millions of people. It will start on Palm Sunday 16th March on BBC 1 at prime time until Easter Sunday. The programme website offers a range of resources.

The Churches' Media Council website provides notes intended to help churches and others to prepare for the series - offering principles they would like to commend to the Christian community in approaching the series.

More locally, Christ in the Centre, Leicester offers a unique opportunity on Good Friday 2008 to witness a dramatic reconstruction of the events which changed the world at the start of the first millennium.
