Celebrities are known for keeping up their very recognisable appearances, but this week, Pilgrimage: The Road Through North Wales, will bring them onto screens in a very personal journey. Seven well-known personalities, of differing faiths and beliefs, will be shown tackling a modern-day pilgrimage.
This is the sixth series, and will follow the famous faces this time along the North Wales Pilgrim’s Way. The route celebrates Celtic early Christian saints, with Bardsey Island the fabled ‘Island of 20,000 saints’ - just off the western tip of the Llyn Peninsula - as their final destination.
It's a unique spin on religious programming for Easter and with celebs including Christine McGuinness, Spencer Matthews and Michaela Strachan on the trail, you'll be hooked.
