BROADCAST TIMES for The Passion, a four-part drama about the events of Holy Week, were released by BBC1 this week.

The first part runs for an hour on Palm Sunday at 8 p.m.; the second part for half an hour at 8 p.m. on Monday 17 March; and the third, again an hour, is on Good Friday at 9 p.m.

The final hour-long part is likely be at 8 p.m. on Easter Day, though the time had still to be confirmed, said Andrew Graystone, director of the Churches’ Media Council, on Wednesday.
