The Look of The Irish - RTE Sunday 9th August.

Club members that may be kept indoors by this Summer's crap weather might be interested to note that this Sunday, RTÉ will commence a new series ‘The Look of the Irish’. As part of this season, documentaries will be aired from Sunday 9th to Friday 14th August, which will celebrate Ireland and our heritage through the photographs that have shown us who we are since 1893.

In this series formal and informal snaps taken by amateur and professional photographers over the last 170 years will be looked at. Nine documentaries will be aired covering emotive photographic topics such as a Cork’s family’s story if city life over three generations to the fascinating archive of Titanic survivor Fr. Browne.
