    Got a text about this program earlier. Explores the impact it had on the local area.

    May be of interest to 1 or 2 here.

    Will they show the 1000s of rats escaping when the towers were attempted to be blown up?

    Good show, enjoyed that. Good programme about 1916 and Limericks Con Colbert the night before too. TG4 is a gem.

    For those who missed it, the documentary is also available on-line for 35 days.
    Croí an Cheantair - Episode:6

    Milling was one of Limerick's oldest industries and Ranks Flour Mills on the Dock Road in Limerick would become the industrial heart of the city and a community for its loyal workers over its 50 years in Limerick.

    Is there anywhere that this can be downloaded/ obtained paid or free? Visited my 90 year old granny today and told her about this and she was excited by the description i gave her. I seen it but never thought to record it.
    Thanks
