Episode 5: Holidays and Stowaways

from Talking Derry Girls · host The Big Light

It's the 12th of July and the Derry Girls are leaving town. Pauline Jeanie and Marie Louise talk about the history of the 12th, being waved at by the big man off the telly and why a fortune teller had all the answers - maybe. They advise on taking the right purse and why packing a fruit cake in your hand luggage isn't recommended. They're having a whale of a time on the River Foyle, hitchhiking across the border and discussing the correct etiquette when invited to tea with paramilitaries.  The Sash: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sash Battle of the Boyne 1690: https://www.britannica.com/event/Battle-of-the-Boyne The Orange Order: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-18769781 The Apprentice Boys of Derry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apprentice_Boys_of_Derry http://www.thesiegemuseum.org/ BBC Sounds a short history of Ireland podcast - from around omnibus 20 builds up to the history of the Orange Order; Siege of Derry and the Apprentice Boys of Derryhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00mnfpl Derry - Londonderry City of Culture 2013: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2013/dec/29/derry-city-of-culture-reawakened-idealism Drumcree standoff 1995-2000: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drumcree_conflict Different Drums - Roy Arbuckle: http://www.differentdrums.net/players/roy-arbuckle/ Rev Ian Paisley: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/sep/12/the-rev-ian-paisley Moby Dick - The Novel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moby-Dick Dick - the whale in the Foyle! https://www.derryjournal.com/news/dopey-dick-has-retired-scotland-784232 Tommy Teirnan - Gerry Quinn: https://www.tommedian.com/ The Punt - currency in Ireland before the Euro..  http://www.irishcoinage.com/PICINDX4.HTM Progressive Unionist Party (PUP) https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-11121336 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulster_loyalism Club Biscuits: https://mcvities.co.uk/products/club Bronagh Taggart - Nicola in Peggy’s diner: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0846499/ Terence Keeley - the wee ‘ra man in the boot: See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
