Everyman (1977)

Season 1

Everyman is a British television documentary series that aired on BBC One in a late-night slot on Sunday evenings between 1977 and 2005. Its subject matter tended to be focused on moral and religious issues, often in the form of a film in which individuals would discuss their thoughts. One edition from 1990, A Game of Soldiers concerned a group of soldiers exploring their feelings about being trained to kill. Throughout much of its time on air, series of Everyman aired alternately with Heart of the Matter, a debate series which featured somewhat similar topics. Both series were cancelled in the 2000s after the BBC revamped the output of its religious programming.

S1E1 - Inspiration Incorporated

Vanya Kewley reports from Southern California on the world's largest walk-in, drive-in 'Inspiration Centre', run by the man critics dub the 'Henry Ford of Organised Religion'. Everyman explores the multi-million dollar operation Dr Robert Schuller calls a 'shopping centre for Jesus Christ', and investigates the appeal of Schuller's weekly TV religious spectacular. In the year a devout Baptist became President of the United States, how do Americans rate a minister of religion who uses media technology to preach a gospel of success?
