Diana’s Legacy: How has the British monarchy changed since her death?

It is almost 30 years since the death of Princess Diana, a moment that changed the royal family, the British public, and the way we think about the monarchy. In the years since, her story has continued to shape the royal family, from William and Harry's very different paths, to Harry and Meghan stepping away from royal duties, and publicly criticising the institution. So, how much has the monarchy really changed since Diana’s death, and how much of what we see today can be traced back to 1997? Enda Brady joins Pat to look at Diana’s enduring legacy, the royal family today, and the latest chapter in the Harry and Meghan story.

The Irish Who Served In The British Army

In this episode: we'll begin beneath the waters of Dublin Bay where hundreds of shipwrecks tell the story of trade, war and survival. We'll explore a largely forgotten Ireland of red-coated soldiers, barracks and military patrols, and find out what the stories of the Irish who served in the British Army tell us about our complicated relationship with the British Empire.
