Jesus: The Complete Story
A scientific analysis of one of the most remarkable lives in history.

It was presented by Jeremy Bowen, and its first episode premiered in the United Kingdom on 1 April 2001.

A full symphonic score was composed by James Whitbourn. Son of God featured interviews with 21 historians and other Biblical experts, live action reenactments of the life of Jesus with Leron Livo in the lead role, and computer-generated images of what locations from Jesus's time might have looked like. These images, created by design team Red Vision, were praised by critics and received an Outstanding Achievement Award at the 2001 Royal Television Society North Awards.
