How much does Religion influence voter behaviour in a General Election? We get the lowdown from Sir John Curtice Professor of Politics at Strathclyde University after a report from the religious think tank Theos claimed it could be a significant factor in July.

The Church of England has apologised after another delay to the review into how it handled allegations of abuse relating to the late John Smyth. Smyth was former chair of the Iwerne Trust which ran Christian Summer holiday camps but died before he could stand trial.

Art expert Dr Siobhan Jolley talks Edward through the Martyrdom of St Ursula, currently on display as part of the Last Caravaggio exhibition at the National Gallery and explores the religious depth of Caravaggio's work.
