Bromsgrove comedian's journey of a lifetime

Available for over a year

Hasan Al-Habib joins celebrities in TV show Pilgrimage, sharing faith and beliefs as they follow in ancient footsteps towards the 'Holy Island' of Lindisfarne. The Bromsgrove-born performer swapped stand-up for footpaths to trek through the stunning surrounds of North East England, alongside Ashley Banjo, Hermione Norris, Tasha Ghouri, Jayne Middlemiss, Ashley Baker and Patsy Kensit. Discover how Hasan's jokes landed amongst the team - and animals they encountered along the way - alongside how he had an eye-opening conversation with a member of the walkers who was questioning their faith.
