Pilgrimage

Seven celebrities of differing faiths and beliefs take on a pilgrimage through the Austrian and Swiss Alps to Einsiedeln Abbey, a pilgrim destination for over a thousand years.

It's day five, and the pilgrims prepare for the challenging Alpine paths ahead of them. As they go along the path, they discover part of their route is covered by a deep snow drift.

The celebrities finish their journey at Einsiedeln Abbey, a pilgrim destination for over 1,000 years.

Seven well known personalities of differing faiths and beliefs set off on a unique 390km series of trails through the stunning landscapes of north east England to explore the lives of early Celtic Christian saints.

They trek through the heart of Northumberland and the Scottish Borders along a curated network of trails celebrating three of England's seventh-century northern saints – Hild, Oswald and Cuthbert. During the journey, they encounter Whitby's famous cliff-top abbey and two of the most important pilgrimage sites in north east England – the Unesco site of Durham Cathedral and their final destination, the Holy Island of Lindisfarne.

The pilgrims continue their adventure in Durham and visit the 12th-century Norman cathedral, where they are introduced to the ancient pilgrim tradition of foot washing.

The pilgrims are in the Scottish Borders on St Cuthbert's Way in the Cheviots. It takes them on a strenuous route up Wideopen Hill to reach some spectacular views.

Later, the pilgrims head to Cuthbert's Cave in the Kelso Hills, where legend says the monks rested with Cuthbert's body when they fled Lindisfarne in the late 9th century in the wake of Viking raids. And on the last day of their pilgrimage, they follow the 5km walk across the tidal sands of Pilgrims' Way, where saints and pilgrims have trekked for over a thousand years.

Finally, they arrive at Holy Island, where they reflect on a journey that has brought some surprising emotional revelations.
