LONDON -Former Prime Minister Tony Blair and country music singer Dolly Parton will be featured in a new BBC series exploring how faith shapes lives.
Nobel Peace Prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu also will be interviewed on the program, which explores the role religious belief plays in the lives of high-profile figures.
Blair will talk about his conversion to Catholicism, while Parton will explain how she balances her faith with her flirtatious stage image.
Tutu, who has long campaigned against injustice in South Africa, jokes in his segment that he would like to ask God, "whose side are you on?"
"All the interviewees come from very different backgrounds, but what binds them together is the fact that, although their faith has been challenged, they've emerged with strong spiritual beliefs," said Fern Britton, the show's presenter.
The series begins on BBC in late November and runs for four consecutive weeks.
