The Fifth Gospel (1990)
In 1989, Nabil Shaban with his then girlfriend, Tina Leslie, went to Lourdes to make a television documentary about disability and Christianity, commissioned by the BBC. It was called "The Fifth Gospel".
It was produced and directed by Nigel Evans, and written by Nigel Evans, Tina Leslie and Nabil Shaban.
The programme was screened in 1990 as part of BBC's Everyman religious affairs slot.
