- Desperately_Seeking_Something abstract "Desperately Seeking Something is a British television series first broadcast on 6 November 1995, presented by travel writer and presenter Pete McCarthy. In it, McCarthy looked at various spiritual practices from across the globe, looking at both long standing traditional beliefs as well as 'alternate' religions which began to flourish in the 1990's. He met a variety of practitioners and participated in their rituals. It ran for three series, with the first two series focusing on practioners located in the British Isles. The second season looked more at Christian and Pagan sects, including the Fellowship of Isis and the Golden Dawn. The third series saw him looking at world traditional beliefs like Australian Aboriginal beliefs and Hawaiian religion.Before going on what would be referred to as a \"spiritual journey\", McCarthy said \"I've taken on the role of everyman, I'm like lots of people who have given up religion and never replaced it with anything else.\"".

- Desperately_Seeking_Something shortsummary "In episode three, McCarthy travelled to Ireland to visit Clonegal Castle, the headquarters of the Fellowship of Isis, where he was initiated into the Druid Order of Dana. Staying in Ireland, he met with some people who feel a spiritual connection to the country, tries using dowsing rods and then met a group of Roman Catholic priests who believe in connecting to their Celtic pagan roots.".
- Desperately_Seeking_Something shortsummary "In the first episode, McCarthy first travels to Hampstead, London, to meet Paul Saki and experience rebirthing. From there he goes on to meet a hypnotherapist, Stephen Russell, known as The Barefoot Doctor. Stephen places 25 needles in McCarthy's head and then sings, all to help him reconnect with his "spirit-body". After this McCarthy goes on to meet Nicholas, who has trained in the Hawaiian art of Kahuna bodywork. He then travels to the Acorn Centre in Glastonbury where he meets a woman who guides him through "the crowning ceremony" to unlock his DNA from extraterrestrial control. We discover that McCarthy has "wobbly muscles" which he is informed is a sign that he has been reborn from earlier incarnations with some DNA already rejoined. Finally he joins Vivianne Crowley's coven of Wiccans in the Brecon Beacons, Wales, for their Summer Solstice. He is invited to be the first ever to film the fertility ritual to the Wiccan Sun god, on condition that he takes the part of the Wicca Man.".
- Desperately_Seeking_Something shortsummary "McCarthy meets a group of Odinists, living in Tuffnell Park, London. We learn from their High Priestess, Freya Aswin, that they believe in rebuilding a society where community is strong again, the elderly are supported and respected and young people are taught the skills of working with their hands. McCarthy leaves the Odinists to visit Molly Fairley, a London based psychic healer and clairvoyant. He talks about how Molly reveals things about him that no one else knew, and he is convinced of her clairvoyant powers. We also learn that Uranus is the planet controlling television. He leaves there and travels to Glastonbury, and to Shambhala which is run by a woman who claims to have lived many previous lives. She leads him through a trance, using the colours of flowers, which he finds quite powerful. He also meets Annie Wildwood, a pagan priestess, who similarily takes him through a trance, using visions of landscape to help him navigate through it. He leaves Glastonbury and returns to Balham in south London to the House of the Goddess, which started in 1985. It is run by a priestess of the Goddess, Shan Jayran. He describes his time with Shan as very moving, and emotional, and describes how she taught him an important lesson about not being quick to judge others.".
- Desperately_Seeking_Something shortsummary "McCarthy travels to mid-Wales to take part in an initiation ritual to search for the "warrior within", led by an Irish shaman, Shivam O'Brien and it takes a day and a night. It is all part of the Spirit Horse Nomadic Circle Camp, which was founded in 1989 by Shivam O'Brien and Erika Indra. Each summer the Foundation set up camp in a hidden valley on land owned by The Forest of Dreams. The Foundation's rituals are built on a mixture of Buddhist, Celtic and Native American spiritual beliefs. While there McCarthy has to travel into a dark tunnel where he must face his anxieties. After this he is placed into a trance by the "stone medicine woman". Then finally he joins the group in a sweat lodge, where McCarthy discovers a piece of porcelain that falls from his bottom.".

He leaves there and travels on to the north west of Scotland, to Scoraig Peninsula and stays at Samadhan to practise some "Mongolian toning and overtoning". After this he moves on to visit Richard Lawrence at the Aetherius Society where he learns that Jesus came from the planet Venus, and observes some of the society's rituals. Finally McCarthy travels to West Wales to visit The Light Centre where David Saltrees distills the essence of the planets to help people balance their chakras. We end with McCarthy entering a flotation tank where he chants "Ni".".
