Excellent prog by Prof Hutton introducing British Wicca (Britain's fastest-growing religious group) and the man (Gerald Gardner) who lit the spark that set it going.
My respect and admiration for Prof Hutton ever grows; always erudite and articulate, with never a trace of arrogance or ‘I know better’. Gentle and warm, always respectful and receptive to the views of others (no matter how far away from ‘the norm’ they might be). He ends the programme with the words, “Whereas other faiths say, this is what you should feel about the divine, [Wicca] says, this is how you can feel divine.”
Can be caught again here.
