Episode 2

Peter Owen Jones continues his search to find the answer to a more simple and meaningful life. He meets a Franciscan friar in Canterbury who shows him where he has gone wrong. Peter has become too self-sufficient and will only find the answer to a simple life if he leaves the comfort of his parishes and throws himself at the mercy of complete strangers, just as St Francis did. Peter sets off on a two-week road trip with little more than the clothes he is wearing, begging for food and accommodation as he goes.

The run-up to Christmas increases the pressure on Peter Owen Jones as he faces mounting bills, including renewing his car insurance and MoT, which force him to rely even more on the generosity of his parishioners and the people he meets while travelling around southern England. As the festive season approaches, he finds a new way of giving back to the community and assesses his mission to live a more meaningful life. Last in the series.
