'The Troubles I've seen' - Ireland

'Eamonn Holmes intersperses his own memories with a selection of celebrity interviews in a documentary that offers a personal take on the Troubles in Northern Ireland. While it is possible to question the wisdom of allowing the Belfast-born daytime-TV presenter to hold forth on a topic as weighty as political unrest, the recollections of Holmes - and fellow celebrities such as James Nesbitt and Gloria Hunniford - provide a sincere and moving account of the experiences of those caught in the crossfire.' ('Culture', p. 69, Sunday Times, 26 October 2008)

The programme was first broadcast by ITV on Tuesday 28th October. For 30 days after broadcast, the programme will be available at: http://www.itv.com/CatchUp/
