Synopsis

Episode image for Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols

Stephen Cleobury directs the choir for the annual Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols live from the Chapel of King's College, Cambridge.

The pattern of the Festival, based around nine Bible readings interspersed with carols, has remained the same for over 90 years. It unfolds the great mystery of how God came into the world in human form, and for millions across the globe it heralds the beginning of Christmas.
