An Island Parish Season 5

Father John Paul is thrown into the spotlight as Christmas comes to his island parish.

Father John Paul faces an uphill battle to keep his congregation coming to church.

Father Roddy and Father John Paul find time for a long-awaited golf challenge this Easter.

Father Roddy is busy with a wedding, while ferry troubles cause disppointment with the tourist season.

It is the end of Father John Paul's first year as the new Catholic priest on Barra, one of the remotest islands in the Outer Hebrides, but celebrations are in danger of being overshadowed by worries over the whole future of island life. Fishermen say their livelihood is under threat from an unexpected source, and there are new fears over how the remoter communities will survive. Meanwhile, Father Roddy's working hard to perfect his skills as a conjuror; and Scraggie Aggie unexpectedly becomes the life and soul of the party.
