    (Ep2/2). With Gadaffi’s first shipment of weapons to the IRA now landed at Shannon airport and dispersed around to hiding places, in this second and final part of this documentary series, we hear how the IRA trained on these weapons. We then travel north, to Northern Ireland where on Tuesday, November 28th 1972, the IRA carried out ten rocket attacks injuring, maiming and killing. As we complete this story, we meet with the son of the first victim to be killed by these rockets, RUC Constable Robert Keys, a 55yr old father of six who was just finishing up his night shift at Belleek RUC station in Co. Fermanagh. Narrated by Liam O’Brien and Conor Keane. Produced by Liam O’Brien.

    First Consignment: 01 – Airlift
    Sep 28 2024
    (Ep1/2) In the summer of 1972, Libya’s Colonel Gaddafi made an approach to the Provisional IRA with an offer of weapons. This was to become the first modern weaponry the IRA got access to. The first shipment of arms landed in Ireland in late 1972, a shipment that few, even to this day, are aware of. More than fifty years after all of this took place we finally tell a story that has never been told before. In this first part of a two part documentary, we follow these weapons from their point of manufacture in Russia, through to their arrival on Irish soil. (Part 1 of 2) Narrated by Liam O’Brien and Conor Keane. Produced by Liam O’Brien. Readings were by David Nelligan and Joe Garry – with special thanks to Colin Barker, production engineer in RTÉ Limerick. (2024)

    Heart and Soul Horses
    Sep 20 2024
    In 2008, Celine Cawley was killed in her home in Howth in County Dublin. Just over a year later, her husband was convicted of her manslaughter and sent to prison. Their sixteen year old daughter Georgia was an only child and effectively lost both of her parents. That sixteen year old girl is now thirty years old. The constant in Georgia's life has been horses and dogs, and they have got her through the darkest of days. Last summer Georgia had been running a stables in Rush in north county Dublin – offering therapeutic riding to children and young people who have additional needs. In July 2023, Georgia's landlord told her that he needed his land back and she would have to leave. This is Georgia's story – not just the last year as she tries to solve her problem – but how horses have helped her through trauma and healing to a place where she can be happy. Narrated by Chloe Grogan Browne and Nicoline Greer. Produced by Nicoline Greer. Sound by Gar Duffy (2024)
