You’re born in one country. But your parents come from a different one. So what does that make you?
What if the two countries share a complex history, and happen to be closest neighbours across the Irish Sea?
Are you British? Or are you Irish? Or don’t you know? And why the hell are there so many Irish people in England, anyway?
Join Declan Duffy as he attempts to make some good sense out of it all, considering the history of Irish migration to Britain, the difficulties encountered by the people who made that journey, and how all of it has influenced us, their descendants, in our consideration of who and what we are. There’ll be some songs, of course there will. And a few laughs. And we’ll attempt to answer the vexed question of how many boxes you technically have to tick in order to confidently state: “I am Irish (sort of)”.
If you're Irish in Britain...this is YOUR story!
