Religion & assisted dying debate; Helen-Ann Hartley on being 'frozen out' by other bishops

Was the result of the vote on assisted dying a rejection of traditional religious values?

The Bishop of Newcastle who called for the resignation of the Archbishop of Canterbury talks to us about the price she's paid for rocking the boat.

Friday's vote by MPs in favour of the Assisted Dying Bill was certainly historic. But did it also feel like a rejection of traditional religious values? We'll explore that claim on today's Sunday with broadcaster Mark Mardell and Director of Theos Chine McDonald

We'll celebrate the start of Advent with Radio 3 as they fill their schedule with Christmas choirs, live from across the UK.
