'BEST ALBUM'
NI. MUSIC PRIZE
BANKRUPT BILLIONAIRE
With unprecedented access to Quinn himself, filmed over a four-year period, telling one of the most extraordinary stories of our time; a reversal of fortunes more far-fetched than fiction. It is the story of how a farmer’s son from Derrylin went from being a school dropout to one of the richest men in the world – literally building an empire from the limestone and shale-filled ground he grew up on.
BLUE LIGHTS
The new drama set in Belfast stars Siân Brooke and focuses on a group of rookie recruits working in the PSNI.
The six-part series comes from creators Declan Lawn and Adam Patterson and focuses on both the politics and the day-to-day risks of policing in Belfast.
