Episode Philip Stephens - These Divided Isles Cover

Philip Stephens - These Divided Isles

Sé Merry Doyle  interviews Philip Stephens, former Political Editor of The FT, about his new book “These Divided Isles - Britain and Ireland, Past and Future”. Philip is a writer and historian, the author most recently of a widely praised account of Britain's post-imperial struggle to find its place in the world: Britain Alone - the Path from Suez to Brexit. He is a Contributing Editor for the Financial Times, where for 25 years  he wrote a regular column about political and international affairs. ‍ In this quote Philips gives us a glimpse of what the future might look like 'I see the world as on the cusp of the most profound geopolitical upheaval since the end of the Cold War. If history was ever suspended after the fall of the Berlin Wall it has now resumed. I enjoy trying to make sense of this new, fractured and precarious world.  I am a frequent speaker and moderator at international conferences, an Honorary Governor of the Ditchley Foundation, a Richard Von Weizsacker fellow at the Bosch Academy, and a member of the Board of the Franco-British Colloque. I grew up in London but have roots in Co Mayo in the west of Ireland'. style="float: left; margin: 0 15px 15px 0;"

Episode Peter Lennons 'The Rocky Road to Dublin' Documentary Cover

Peter Lennons 'The Rocky Road to Dublin' Documentary

After a recent screening of Peter Lennon's 'The Rocky Road to Dublin' at the Kiln Cinema in Kilburn, the restorer of the classic documentary Sé Merry Doyle conducted a Q&A with Eeva Lennon, the late director's wife. Eeeva tells untold stories about the making of the film and how Peter secured the money to make the film from his base in Paris. Peter and his cameraman Raoul Coutard set out on an amazing journey back to Dublin and the resulting film caused a major backlash from the conservative forces in Ireland. Peter's film poses the question, "what do you do with your revolution [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_War_of_Independence] once you've got it?" It argues that Ireland was dominated by cultural isolationism, Gaelic and clerical traditionalism at the time of its making.
