Published in 1974 by Collins, Roger Dixon's 'Christ on Trial' is a strange and intensely exciting book which tells the story of the making of a very original television film and of the people who took part in the production. The producer Lee Harrison's plan was to put 'the life and teaching of Jesus Christ 'on trial before a hundred million witnesses,' his theme being that 'if Christ was the Son of God, then what he said must be right for us here and now...I want him, and those who knew him...to present their evidence in the environment of a modern criminal court which, imperfect though it may be, is the finest instrument for weighing truth we have been able to forge in two thousand years
