I would like to have seen this program, but I'm in the states. Somehow I think I know the approach Dawkins took, however.
For those interested in hearing the other side, check out... "Dawkin's God":

It's hard for me to take him seriously since he refuses to debate ID proponents (despite what the channel 4 overview said about his never shying away from debates). What I'm curious about is how Dawkins reconciles his faith with:
1. The evidence for DNA encoding & The Anthropic Principle.
2. The evil committed under Atheistic Materialist regimes in the 20th century alone. The unholy trinity (Stalin, Lenin, Mao) is conservatively estimated to have been responsible for the deaths of more that 100,000,000 people. This was done in the name of an explicitly atheistic philosophy - Marxism.
3. The hospitals, mission organizations, and altruism in general, which are rooted in religious organizations.
