2. What is Redemption? by Philippe de la Trinité
3. Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist: Unlocking the Secrets of the Last Supper by Brant Pitre
4. The Crucifixion in Irish Art by Peter Harbison
5. Thomas Tallis: The Complete English Anthems by The Tallis Scholars, directed by Peter Phillips
