Rev. Richard Coles

The Rev Richard Coles is one of the few celebrities to have successfully bridged the gap between pop music and the pulpit.

In this unique evening he will share his story, which is as real as it is unlikely. Connecting the euphoria and mayhem of being on Top of The Pops in the 80s to his present circumstances as Church of England priest, radio broadcaster and television show panellist, Richard will answer the questions, “How do you go from pop star to priest? And why?”

Richard has a delightfully enquiring mind and as such, his talks are always moving, thought-provoking and entertaining in equal order. He will discuss his latest book, Bringing in the Sheaves, which picks up where his earlier volume Fathomless Riches closed, with his ordination as a priest.
