Beauty in faith, Narnia in Dorchester & Islamic art

How beauty plays an important part in Jewish & Islamic faiths, how Dorchester Abbey has been transformed in to Narnia, & we preview "supernatural" Islamic art at the Ashmolean.

An Imam from Oxford chats to the former president of the Oxford Jewish Congregation about how beauty plays an important part in their faiths and married vicars discuss how they see the beauty in each other. We find out how Dorchester Abbey has been transformed in to Narnia to celebrate 60 years since the publication of The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe. Plus, we get a preview of a new exhibition that looks at "supernatural" Islamic art at the Ashmolean Museum.
