Episode 2

Gareth Malone and Karen Gibson uncover more of the history, music and traditions linking Britain to Easter, in the second of two special programmes. They travel across the country to explore how celebrations have changed over the centuries, taking in sites as varied as Whitby, Glastonbury, Hampton Court and Leeds. They discover how a medieval marital spat sparked change in the British church forever, why Easter was banned and by whom, and the story behind an Easter hymn by the nation's most prolific hymn writer Charles Wesley. And they're joined by the Kingdom Choir for an inspirational musical performance.
