Overview

Shown in a Sunday teatime slot on ITV, Credo was a religious series focussing on different issues every week. This episode examines some of the problems members of the Muslim community in Bradford face with reconciling Koranic teaching within British legal frameworks. An argument against Bradford's co-educational school system is strongly countered by interviews with anonymous Muslim teenagers.
