In Season 2 of Waterways through Time, historian Turtle Bunbury continues his journey through the Waterways of Time as he further explores the rich history of Ireland’s waterways. With an instinct for quirky details, he brings us the story of the terror-inducing Viking leader Thorgesius and the Norman warlords who seized control of the Shannon, the Barrow and the other major leaders. We meet Turlough O’Connor, one of the most powerful kings of Connaught, and learn how he changed the landscape of the Shannon region.

Season 2 also features interviews with Susie Coote, owner of the 45M barge, historian Cathy Scuffil about the days when boats laden with Guinness voyaged through the Irish countryside and the marine archaeologist, Dr Connie Kelleher about what’s hidden in the waterways and life on a traditional open Irish boat with Cliff Reid.
