ADRIAN DUNBAR: MY IRELAND
Channel 5, 8pm
Fans of the Line of Duty actor will enjoy this gentle amble around the Emerald Isle.
It’s the usual celeb travelogue format – he journeys through the country, taking in the culture, history and landscape and meeting locals along the way.
From a sixth-century monastery to a railway line, oyster farm and the oldest operational lighthouse in the world, the idea is to visit the places he’s always wanted to go, but never quite found the time. And we also get a rare glimpse into Adrian’s childhood, as he reconnects with his hometown, stargazes just as he did as a young lad, and meets old pals in his local pub to share a song or two over a Guinness.
He starts at a place that holds many powerful memories for him, the highest accessible seacliff in the whole of Europe – dramatic Slieve League on the Wild Atlantic way in Co Donegal.
And he also makes it to his hometown of Fermanagh, a water wonderland with one-third covered by lakes and rivers.
