Richard Coles at the Edinburgh International Book Festival 2015

Filmed live at the Edinburgh International Book Festival 2015. He was once part of 1980s pop duo The Communards but later resurrected his career as the Reverend Richard Coles, and is currently tending to his flock in a parish in Northamptonshire. In Fathomless Riches, Richard explains how he reconciled his old life in that hedonistic and highly politicised decade with a more contemplative self which made him one of the inspirations for the clerics in the sitcom Rev and the movie Bridget Jones’ Diary. Chaired by Richard Holloway.
