Teorainn ar TG4/BBC NI

[Fear Boirche]

Had this Sky plussed from last Wednesday and only round to watching it last night. Seems a fascinating series about the Border Commission and how border was set up in the early 1920s - which areas were in the south or north and how the respective minority communities (northern nationalists and 'southern' protestants) reacted to it. It also has a few human interest angles and as well  speaking to various historians talks to people like Joe Kernan, Jarlath Burns and people whose family homes were along the border.

Second part is on TG4 tonight and it's also been shown on BBC NI, although not too sure of the day or times.

Anyone else see it?

What time is it on tonight on TG4 at??

Watched the first episode on the BBC iPlayer last night. Good enough introduction to those who don't know much about the Commission, or the border areas for that matter.

Oh the irony. Do TG4 have any facility for watching stuff again that's been online?

Saw the first part of it on Sunday night - great show!It's the first of four parts AFAIK.When you see old footage of the choppers flying over the pairc at Cross it reminds you of how mad things were.

Saw the second part to this last night on the BBC. Excellent programme. Well worth watching.
