The Convent follows four ordinary women as they give up their everyday lifestyles to embark upon a spiritual journey within a community of nuns, at the Convent of the Poor Clares, in Arundel, West Sussex. For the nuns at the Convent, their service to God is based on manual work, obedience, community and chastity. For them, it is a daily labour of pure love. Offering a remarkable glimpse into the inner workings of convent life, the women will spend 40 days and 40 nights in a world without material possessions and where the pressures of modern life are left behind. All the female volunteers are beset with modern anxieties, from appearance and achievement to sex, motherhood and fulfilment. Will they find any peace, or even answers, inside the hallowed walls? Cut off from the outside world, they will share the daily routine of prayers and work with the Sisters in an attempt to discover if life has any greater meaning. Like The Monastery, the themed of series are unravelled through the personal dramas of everyday life in the enclosed confines of the Convent. Debi Ireland is 44 and lives in Scotland with her husband and their five-year-old son. She works as a children's entertainer telling stories about overcoming fears, yet she has spent the past 39 years battling with the sense she is 'not good enough'. Her parents split up when she was five. As she said goodbye to her mother in Australia to move to Britain with her father, her mother promised she would see her again in six weeks. She never appeared. Debi assumed it was her own fault, and ever since has been haunted by guilt and low esteem. She is hoping the convent will help her to overcome her fear that God will punish her and that she will return home as a new mum no longer wracked by rejection. Iona Maclean is 25 and a singer/songwriter living in Chelsea, London. She is the only Christian in the group of volunteers. A former 'party girl' she went through a phase of heavy drinking from which she believed she was saved by God. Nevertheless, she still struggles with the temptations of the modern world, particularly her self-confessed weakness for the opposite sex. She is seriously considering celibacy and thinks that the nuns might be able to advise her how to go about it. Angela Dickson is 43, single, a former police officer, former pub landlord and a successful business development manager in Nottingham. Her career has been her priority and she seems to have it all - a nice house, a second property abroad and a BMW convertible. But recently she has come to ask what any of her material wealth is really worth. Twice divorced, she has no faith, no children, and feels time is running out. She hopes that going into the convent will help her to discover if there is more to life - and more to her. Victoria Bennett is 33. She lives and works as a poet in the Lake District. Brought up an atheist, she completely rejects the idea of a patriarchal God and tries to live her life free of rules. She has an open marriage and she feels everyone should be free to express their sensuality however they see fit. But underneath it all Victoria struggles to reconcile her free spirit with a deep-rooted insecurity. Associated Creators: (Tiger Aspect Productions for BBC Two)

It soon becomes clear that this crash course in monastic living is going to prove to be a bigger challenge than expected.The five quickly learn that making trips to the local shop for treats, listening to personal stereos and napping when they should be reading the Bible doesn’t exactly fit in with the Benedictine teachings of silence, obedience and humility.

This is the story of the dream that rose up in the 1990s that computers could create a new kind of stable world. They would bring about a new kind global capitalism free of all risk and without the boom and bust of the past. They would also abolish political power and create a new kind of democracy through the internet where millions of individuals would be connected as nodes in cybernetic systems - without hierarchy. The film tells the story of two perfect worlds. One is the small group of disciples around the novelist Ayn Rand in the 1950s. They saw themselves as a prototype for a future society where everyone could follow their own selfish desires. The other is the global utopia that digital entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley set out to create in the 1990s. Many of them were also disciples of Ayn Rand. They believed that the new computer networks would allow the creation of a society where everyone could follow their own desires, yet there would not be anarchy. They were joined by Alan Greenspan who had also been a disciple of Ayn Rand. He became convinced that the computers were creating a new kind of stable capitalism - "Like a New Planet", he said. But the dream of stability in both worlds would be torn apart by the two dynamic human forces - love and power.
