Changing Churches: Three churches represent religious change in Britain: a Nigerian-based church has been created in a former nightclub, while two disused Christian churches have been converted into a Mosque and a Hindu temple.The Immigrant's Story: Evrim's family arrived in Britain as illegal immigrants.
