Trusadh: Shifting Sabbath - Monday 13th Sept, 9pm, BBC ALBA

Lewis and Harris, in the Hebrides, are amongst the last bastions of strong Sunday observance in Britain. However, things are changing on the islands with traditional views on Sabbath keeping being challenged.

 

Encountering various members of the public, from ministers to parents to journalists, it is clear that the range of arguments for and against the upkeep of this religious tradition is diverse. The one thing upon which they can all agree, is that the coming years will continue to see a shifting Sabbath, which will be critical in how the day will be observed by future generations.
