Celebrity Culture - Good, Bad or Ugly?

The cult of celebrity is everywhere, from sun kissed islands to the Australian jungle, encompassing authors, footballers and those with no discernible talent. Is it a good thing?

The cult of celebrity is everywhere, from sun kissed islands to the Australian jungle, encompassing authors, footballers and even those with no discernible talent. Is it a force for good or a sign of the apocalypse? Audrey Carville is joined by Liz Kennedy, Cathy Martin and Dr Leon Litvack to assess the affect of celebrity on society. Should we worried or like the writer of Ecclesiastes will we simply accept that there is nothing new under the sun?

We also look at modern slavery in Northern Ireland, the fall of the poster boy for evangelical purity culture and the disestablishment of the Church of Ireland.
