Synopsis
Gnostics was a 1987 4-part drama-documentary series made by Border TV for Channel 4. It was re-broadcast in 1990. The writer of the series, Tobias Churton, also released an accompanying book. The body of the programmes was compiled of documentary material on Gnostic movements and the Cathars. Among those interviewed were academics and writers Hans Jonas, Gilles Quispel, Elaine Pagels and James Robinson, as well as Muhammad Ali al-Samman who unearthed the texts at Nag Hammadi. Within the frame of documentary dramatized sections were acted by Nigel Harrison with other actors including Brian Blessed, Marius Goring, Ian Brooker, and James Tillett.
