How to watch Easter from King's on TV
The Cambridge choir is back to celebrate Easter with another performance.
With the Easter weekend just days away, there's a lot of telly to look forward to watching over a few chocolate eggs and a copy of the Radio Times – from Why Didn't They Ask Evans? to MasterChef – but if you're after something more traditional, you can always rely on the King's College choir to deliver the holiday hymns.
BBC Two will be airing Easter from King's this weekend, with the Cambridge college's choir performing the best of Bach, Mozart and Tchaikovsky throughout the 70-minute special.
With the college's Dean, Reverend Dr Stephen Cherry, leading the religious service, the male choir's renditions of classical pieces are set to bring some musical serenity to our Saturday evening.
