Gay marriage in Sikhism, Hinduism and Islam.

Nihal asks whether religious leaders in mosques, mandirs and gurdwaras should be allowed to bless gay marriages, plus fitness guru Kapil Lakhani joins him in the studio.

Should religious leaders in Mosques, Mandirs and Gurdwaras be allowed to bless gay marriages? That's the question at one o'clock.

For the last seven years homosexuals have been able to enter into a civil partnership but have been banned from getting officially "married" with a formal ceremony. At some point before the next election full gay marriage will be legalised in the United Kingdom.

Do you think its time that Hindu, Sikh and Muslim places of worship came into the twenty first century and agree to bless such unions?

If faith is important to a homosexual Muslim, Hindus or Sikhs should their marriage be recognised by a priest or an Imam? Or is this a step too far? Should gay marriages be kept out of religion?

After 2, Fitness Guru Kapil Lakhani joins Nihal in studio to answer all your health and fitness related questions.
