Jesus: Countdown to Calvary offers a revolutionary new telling of "the greatest story ever told" - the story of an itinerant Jewish healer and preacher, who went from hero to victim in a single week, 2000 years ago, and ended up dead on a cross. Hugh Bonneville sets out to discover why that one execution had such seismic, lasting and global impact, for better and for worse.

Based on new analysis of contemporary, historical events in Rome, Last Days of Jesus peels back thousands of years of tradition, to explore a new political interpretation of the famous events leading up to Jesus’ crucifixion.

Take a pilgrimage across the Holy Land as we explore the life of Jesus of Nazareth, separating history from legend.
