• A Short History of Ireland

  In 1939 a divided Ireland held her breath on the brink of the Second World War. Almost a quarter of a century later she swayed on the edge of a fresh conflict - Terence O’Neill was the new Prime Minister of Northern Ireland and the Troubles were just around the corner. What happened in the years between these two great turning points? In 60 episodes, 'A Short History of Ireland' brings the events, the leading characters and the ordinary people to life. The series is written by Dr. Jonathan Bardon and is a continuation of his 240 part 'A Short History of Ireland' for BBC Radio Ulster. The narrators are Cherrie McIlwaine, Patrick FitzSymons, Sean Crummey and Dr. Jonathan Bardon.

• Best of Talkback

  Talkback was Northern Ireland's first news phone-in programme and has been on air for more than 20 years. For many years it was a sounding board for the public to react and comment on the sectarian violence of the troubles and the development of the peace process. Today the agenda reflects the changing shape of Northern Ireland - topics like anti-social behaviour, hospital cleanliness and devolution issues are now high on the agenda. It is presented by Wendy Austin, one of NI's best known broadcasters.

  Religious Hot Topics This week, we examine how the church is dealing with some of today's hot moral topics: climate change, homosexuality,and sectarianism. Ruth Gledhill and Austen Ivereigh offer close readings of the Vatican's new Apostolic Constitution, which offers disaffected Anglicans a way into the Catholic Church. Sarah Williamson and Haddon Wilson talk about the award-winning documentary For the Bible Tells Me So, which explores the use and misuse of the Bible in today's debate about homosexuality. Fr Sean McDonagh and John Woods disagree about the new pastoral letter on climate change from Ireland's Catholic bishops. And Malachi O'Doherty reports on how churches are combating hard and soft sectarianism.
