A BIBLIOGRAPHY BY COUNTY OF WRITINGS ON IRISH MINES by Des Cowman Abstract: Issue 3 (December 1996) of the Mining Heritage Society of Ireland (MHSI) Newsletter had an alphabetical listing by authors of published works on Irish mining 1955-1995.

  • Fómhar/Autumn 2016 Drámaíocht/Drama
    Fómhar/Autumn 2016 Drámaíocht/Drama Ros na Rún 8.30pm Tuesdays & Thursdays from 6/9/16 (omnibus Sunday) The flagship drama series comes of age this season (the 21st) and is one of TG4’s best-loved programmes. It has engaging storylines that bring the leading characters through awkward situations and extreme jeopardy. There are many laughs along the way, the kindling of romance and consequent broken hearts for some but not all. The coming season will continue to delight, excite and engage audiences with cliffhanging drama, deception, deceit, death and of course romance and humour. In its unique natural style, Ros na Rún deals with the many social issues which face rural communities in today’s world and excels in the exposure of such matters with insightful writing and acting. Following on from the end of season showdown in the woods, audiences wait to see the fate of Bobbi Lee and Andy and will be intrigued to find out if he was left for dead. Tadhg, the series lynchpin is seriously threatened this season but will he get away with it, or must he spend the rest of his life looking over his shoulder? The season opens with much treachery and drama, and viewers will once again be glued to their seats as the season unfolds and death hits the coastal village, depriving the community of one of its long-time residents. Wakes and weddings are part of rural life and a Christmas wedding could be on the cards bringing the village some much needed romance and happiness. With tales of affairs, theft, controversial pregnancies, break-ins and break-ups viewers will have plenty to guess at and gossip about every Tuesday and Thursday night at 8.30pm on TG4 with the omnibus on Sundays at 10.30pm.
