A special programme celebrating Omagh and the surrounding area with the nostalgic trail of the Showbands era, memories of World War I, and the last master tailor of Tyrone. It’s all part of the incredible audio archive of Omagh man, Don McGurgan.
We hear about the ongoing efforts to reinstate the woodlands at Gortin Glen that were badly damaged by Storm Eowyn and we explore the rich history of Crevenagh House and its connections to the Auchinleck family.
Plus, the return of native oysters to the Carrickfergus marina and the East Coast Sketchers celebrate creativity and community with their first exhibition.
