Bristol
Aled Jones is in Bristol where he visits Brunel’s groundbreaking passenger ship, the mighty SS Great Britain, and finds out which hymns were sung on board in 1852.\n\nHe takes a look at some of Bristol’s amazing street art, including one of the latest murals on the side of E5 Church. There he meets artist Emma Holloway, who explains the link between butterflies and the Bible, and one of the church members tells Aled why the theme of transformation is so meaningful to her. \n\nWe join the Christian youth group from Christ Church Downend, who are planting trees that will form part of the Queen’s Green Canopy, and Rosie Walker from the Woodland Trust explains how everyone can get involved in planting a tree for the Queen’s platinum jubilee. Gemma Hunt meets HM Coastguard’s first ever chaplain, the Rev Tom Ebbens, on a very muddy seashore training exercise in Portishead, and there is an uplifting performance of Rise Up from Laura Wright.
