Glacann Aodhán Ó Baoill agus Niamh Ní Dhubhgáin turas thart ar Cheathrú na hOllscoile (nó Ceathrú na Banríona).

Labhraíonn an t-ailtire Ciarán Mackel ar an dóigh ar dearadh cuid de na foirgnimh is mó aithne i mBéal Feirste, ar a n-áirítear Foirgneamh Lanyon, príomhfhoirgneamh Ollscoil na Banríona. Cuireann Ollamh de chuid Ollscoil na Banríona, Mícheál Ó Mainnín, síos ar na hathruithe a chonaic sé ar an chathair agus ar dhearcthaí i leith na Gaeilge ó thosaigh sé ag obair san ollscoil sna 1908idí. Buaileann Niamh agus Aodhán le Stephen Carson, eipidéimeolaí, i gceann de na láithreacha stairiúla is aitheanta i mBéal Feirste, Reilig Thor an Bhráthar. Faigheann Stephen réidh leis an tseanscéal go scaipfeadh an calar i measc na ndaoine arís dá mbainfí do ‘Plaguey Hill’, áit ar cuireadh na mairbh le linn eipidéim chalair sna 1830idí.

Is léiriú de chuid Clean Slate é Ocht gCeathrú do ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Gaeilge agus RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta le maoiniú ó Chiste Craoltóireachta Gaeilge, Scáileáin Thuaisceart Éireann.

Aodhán Ó Baoill and Niamh Ní Dhubhgáin take a tour of Queen’s Quarter (aka Queen’s Quarter).

Architect Ciarán Mackel talks about how some of Belfast’s most iconic buildings were designed. Queen’s University Professor, Míchéal Ó Mainnín, describes the changes that he has seen in the city and in attitudes towards the Irish language since starting work in the university in the 1980s. Niamh and Aodhán are met by epidemiologist Stephen Carson at Friar’s Bush Graveyard. Stephen dispels the myth that if ‘Plaguey Hill’, where victims were buried during a cholera epidemic of the 1830s, were disturbed, cholera would spread among the population again.
