A 5-Part Documentary Series About The Irish Abroad
From the origins of the "scattering" of the Irish over the centuries, to the dreams fo a mythical home nurtured by so many Irish migrants today, The Irish Empire is a lively exploration of the ups and downs of the Irish experience abroad - as seen by themselves, and as they are perceived by others.
Episode Four: Keeping The Faith tells how the Irish emigrants brought their religious beliefs - and their differences - with them, wherever they went in the world.
Episode Five: Dreams Of Home addresses how the reality of today's Ireland differs from the imagined Ireland preserved by the emigrants and their descendants.
