Pope Benedict XVI has made history as the first pontiff to take part in a televised question-and-answer session.
According to the BBC News, the pre-recorded programme was broadcast on the Italian Rai channel on Good Friday afternoon.
Seven questions were chosen from thousands submitted for the Pope to answer during the 80-minute program.
Most of the questions from people across the world dealt with the struggle and suffering.
TV viewers saw a split screen, with the Pope sitting in the Vatican library and those asking the questions filmed near their homes.
The first question was asked by a seven-year-old Japanese girl traumatised by the recent devastating earthquake and tsunami.
