    The best thing on Irish tv for years!

    An intriguing, captivating, exciting and very wholesome documentary to experience. Watching Colin and Charlie navigate through their goals and circumstances was so interesting and heartfelt. This is a beautiful example of seeing the fantastic Irish literary gem that is Colin Murphy, and the absolute Irish journalistic legend that is Charlie Bird, work together. I cannot recommend watching this (significantly important piece of Irish history that's been documented) enough - I've recommended it to all of my friends and family already and wouldn't hesitate to give this a full 5/5 star review on any platform. Happy watching folks.
