Jill Halfpenny's Easter Journeys

S01E02 Episode 2

Jill returns to her hometown of Gateshead, visiting the Angel of the North, and Hexham to meet the creator of the Angel, Sir Antony Gormley. She also visits The Hearts Of Oak pub in Peterlee, where she rediscovers a traditional game from her youth - Egg Jarping. The pub hosts the official world championships every Easter.

Walking in the footsteps of St. Cuthbert, Jill visits Coquet Island, home to a number of Cuddy Ducks. She also visits an Anglo-Saxon village at Jarrow Hall, learning about The Venerable Bede who lived in the nearby monastery in the eighth century. He's thought to have first identified the origins of the term Easter and calculated when it should fall.

At a former Catholic seminary in Ushaw House Jill takes part in a unique game, invented and only played there. Jill ends her journey at the cathedral in Durham, where the Canon washes her feet and explains the tradition, and also joins the gospel choir, Voices Of Virtue, in song.
