  ------------------------------
  
  Pagans and Pilgrims: Britain's
Holiest Places
  Presenter and Welsh poet Ifor ap Glyn explores the wealth of Britain's extraordinary holy
places on a pilgrimage that spans almost 2,000 years of history. 
  Travelling across the breadth of the UK, Ifor
uncovers the stories and rich history behind many of our most famous sites, explaining the myths and legends of some of
Britain's most sacred places. Over six episodes, Ifor visits crumbling ruins, tranquil healing pools, sacred caves,
island refuges, towering mountain hideaways and ancient shrines to find out what these historical sites tell us about
who we are today. From the divine to the unexpected, the series uncovers Britain's extraordinary variety of
inspirational, surprising and half-forgotten holy places and brings to life our spiritual history.
  
  

 1) Ruins 
  In the first episode, Ifor explores why ruins are among the best-preserved and most-loved holy
sites in Britain. He visits the famous ruins of St Andrews Cathedral, the mystical atmosphere of Wales's best-preserved
Roman site, the battered remains of Coventry's iconic cathedral and the Gothic majesty of North Yorkshire's Whitby Abbey
- the inspiration behind Bram Stoker's Dracula. Along the way, he asks why we're drawn to holy ruins long after their
religious use is over. Is it just nostalgia or something much deeper that fuels our obsession and enduring fascination
with the decaying grandeur of a ruin?
  
  2) Water 
  In the second episode, Ifor explores why
water crops up again and again as the essential element in many of our most holy places. Why has a yearning for pure
natural water always been bound up with our spiritual beliefs? His journey takes him to our oldest mass baptismal pool
which marks the place that Scottish Picts first came into the Christian fold, the site on Loch Ness where Celtic
missionaries battling the forces of paganism first encountered the legendary monster, a healing well where a young woman
was reputedly brought back to life by having her severed head re-attached to her body, and a 2,000-year-old holy spring
that has become a major international brand.
  
  3) Trees and Mountains 
  Ifor visits trees and
mountains as a way of understanding the journey Britain undertook from the old Pagan religion to Christianity. His
journey starts in Glastonbury, site of the famous tor and the Thorns, the most holy trees in the country. He discovers
how even now these symbols are causing friction and discord. His journey continues at Knowlton in Dorset, a place where
a Norman church has been built right in the centre of an earthen henge. There he meets a druid who explains how Pagan
sites were often overwritten in this way by the new Christian religion before they both discover that, at least here,
earth magic seems to be making a comeback. Ifor visits a bleeding yew tree that has divided opinion for 600 years.

 
  4) Shrines 
  Ifor sets out to understand the appeal of shrines. For those outside the Catholic and
Orthodox Church there is something vaguely unsettling about shrines. How can venerating the bones of a dead person bring
you closer to God? From the unlikely starting point of Marc Bolan's roadside shrine in Barnes, Ifor embarks upon perhaps
his most surprising journey. Along the way he learns that Scotland's largest city only exists because of a shrine and
visits the newly-renovated shrine of St David in Wales. At St Albans Cathedral he learns that shrines are slowly but
surely starting to creep back into the Anglican mainstream and that rather than meeting resistance they are being
actively embraced.
  
  5) Islands 
  Ifor sets out to understand the appeal of islands as holy
retreats. It may seem obvious that we would feel closer to the divine when surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of
an island, but Ifor soon discovers there is a far deeper reason they became such a major aspect of religion. His journey
takes him from the Lake District to the Mappa Mundi in Hereford Cathedral, from our most famous holy island at
Lindisfarne to the Western Isles in Scotland where an ancient Christian holy island has been reborn as a Buddhist
monastery.
  
  6) Caves 
  Ifor sets out to understand what happens when our religious urges
drive us underground. His first stop is Lud's Church in Derbyshire, one of the most dramatic and eerie holy places in
the land, once described as 'the place for the Devil to say matins'. Ifor then heads back 14,000 years to find evidence
of perhaps the oldest holy place in Britain. He follows the path of St Cuthbert's body as it was shifted between caves
in the north of England to escape the attentions of Viking raiders and visits the cave of St Govan where a hermit was
miraculously enveloped in rock to evade local gangs of wreckers.
