PROGRAMME PROFILE

DUBLIN DIARIES: HISTORY THROUGH A 1000 VOICES

Since November, we've been broadcasting a show that puts the people of Dublin back in touch with their own forgotten histories. All of the scripts are narrated by members of the public in a dramatic retelling of history.

It’s a calendar packed with nuggets of forgotten histories resurrected to populate each day of our televised calendar. All of these historical nuggets were dug up from several primary archives located in Dublin.

Dublin Diaries plays at the start of each of our blocks of scheduling.
