Hardeep Singh Kohli explores the religious and cultural make-up of the UK by visiting three of its most diverse cities.

In this final part of Great British Faith, Hardeep wanders the streets of east London, which has been his home for the past twenty years. He will explore how the area's history is one of replenishment of immigrant groups and faiths who have made the East End the most culturally diverse area in the country.

He will explore the story of the Huguenots who brought the word "refugee" with them from France when they settled in the area in the 17th century. He will then meet Bernard Kops, a veteran of the Cable Street riots against the fascist Black shirts, who went onto become a prolific playwright and author.

As the call to prayer drifts over east London Hardeep will head to the largest Mosque in Western Europe to look at the role it plays in the community and he joins the worshippers at Kingsway International Church in Walthamstow to find out about the preaching of the 'prosperity gospel' and how every Sunday over half of all church goers in London worship at black churches.

As his three part journey for Radio 2 comes to an end, he will take in the sights, sounds and tastes of Brick Lane, and learn how the Twist was a Jewish invention.
