[edit] Information

David Suchet goes in search of one of the most puzzling characters in history - the man we know today as Saint Peter. Uncovering fragments of tradition and half-whispered traces of Peter's life, Suchet reveals the real person hidden within the New Testament stories. Part 1. Beside the Sea of Galilee, he investigates Peter's early life as a fisherman and asks why it was that Peter chose to join forces with Jesus - a man so clearly on a collision course with Rome. Part 2. According to the New Testament, it is Peter who takes charge of the movement after the death of Jesus. But how could a man who had previously been painted as an impetuous and confused character fill the shoes of such a charismatic leader? And is there any evidence that Peter was eventually martyred in Rome as the first pope of the Roman Catholic church?
