New series ‘Ireland’s Rising’ begins on November 29th
23 Nov 2015 : Seán Brosnan
Ryan Tubridy will feature in the series
‘Ireland's Rising’, a new four-part series starting this Sunday 29 November, will feature four household names returning to their ancestral county to explore its connections with 1916.

The series, which marks the start of RTÉ One’s 1916 programming, sees Anne Doyle, Ryan Tubridy, Jim McGuinness and Fiona Shaw travel to Wexford, Galway, Donegal and Cork respectively to learn about their county's circumstances in 1916 and to discover how each county is planning to commemorate the centenary.

The four will find out what was going on during that fateful week in April, how their own family lived at the time and will meet with people who are commemorating the nation's turning point in diverse and creative ways. Their assumptions will be challenged as they find out how the events of Easter week weren't just limited to Dublin and the GPO, hopefully prompting every county in the country to reflect on their own connections with 1916.

‘Ireland’s Rising’, which will begin on RTÉ One at 8.30pm on Sunday 29 November and run over four successive Sundays, will also be available to watch on the RTÉ Player.

‘Ireland’s Rising’ is part of RTÉ 1916, made possible by Ireland 2016.
