Dear Sir,
Following my letter which you kindly published in the July edition of en about the apparent absence of the atonement from BBC religious programmes I had an unexpected opportunity to speak to one of their presenters (a committed Christian) who was absolutely clear (and I believed this person) that the BBC puts no pressure whatsoever on the programme to avoid the central doctrines of the faith – atonement, resurrection, justification by faith, etc. I am unable to put this together with my listening and watching experience, but I thought I should record what I was told for the benefit of your readers.
Yours faithfully,
