3: Coffins
Manage episode 451623811 series 3618146
Ten young men starve themselves to death in a prison outside Belfast. One of them – Bobby Sands – is an elected MP. Their deaths bring widespread sympathy to the Republican cause and the Provisional IRA’s little-known political wing, Sinn Féin, is bolstered by increasing electoral success. Two years later – at the height of the hottest summer on record – Gerry Adams, widely believed to be a former leader in the IRA (something he denies), is elected to Westminster. Militant Irish nationalism has gone political.
All seven episodes of From Bomb to Ballot are available now.
Host: John Lee
Producers: Artemis Irvine and Bella Soames
Assistant Producer: Sally McLennan
