Following the death of Pope Francis, Catholics around the world are looking to Rome and the Vatican as the Church prepares to elect its next leader. But what do Catholics around the world hope to see in their future pontiff?

Colm Flynn is in Rome to speak to Catholics gathered from different corners of the globe. From pilgrims in St Peter's Square to others from the USA and Africa, Colm explores the diverse expectations, aspirations, and concerns they hold for their new spiritual leader.

What kind of attributes should the next pope possess? What pressing issues must he urgently address - be it social justice, inclusivity, climate change, or the evolving role of women within the Church? And how will the incoming Pope guide over one billion Catholics through these challenges?
