BBC’s Songs of Praise features first same-sex marriage

BBC One’s Songs of Praise has aired its first ever gay wedding as bosses look to modernise the format and pull in a new audience.

On Sunday (18.08.19) afternoon’s episode, viewers saw Jamie Wallace and Ian McDowall tie the knot at Glasgow’s Rutherglen United Reformed Church.

The denomination, one of the few in the UK to allow same-sex marriages, has allowed individual congregations to vote on whether or not their church will host gay weddings since 2016.
