Richard Coles is a musician, writer and broadcaster, and an Anglican priest. After an unlikely stint as an 80s pop star he went on to co-present Saturday Live on BBC Radio 4 for twelve years and often appears on QI and Have I Got News For You. He writes regularly for The Sunday Times, and is the author of the number one bestselling Canon Clement Mysteries, as well as two best selling non-fiction titles, Fathomless Riches and The Madness of Grief.

In their conversation, Mona Siddiqui and Richard Coles will explore the place of ministry, music and media in his personal and professional life, and the challenges of holding onto faith in contemporary society.

Rev Richard Coles will also lead the service at Holy Trinity Church on Sunday 12 October at 10am.
