Bamber Gascoigne charts the history and evolution of Christianity in this 13-part series covering over two thousand years of history. Filmed in 1977 in more than 30 countries, THE CHRISTIANS describes the experiences and actions of Christians from the birth of Christ, through the Roman Empire, the Renaissance, Lutheran reform and subsequent developments to modern times. The series also considers the spread of Christianity, whether by violence - as in the Crusades against Islam - or through world-wide travels of missionaries.
