Grá, guts, gumption and glory: Are these Irish history's greatest romances?
From TG4's Seachtain na Cásca docudrama: Grace Gifford (Kathleen Watkins) and Joseph Plunkett (Declan Harvey) are married in Kilmainham.
Ireland has always had a funny relationship with romance. Despite our location on a cold northern European island and the best efforts of certain institutions, we are a passionate and red-blooded sort.
Our windswept landscapes, love of literature and music and the struggle for freedom have woven themselves into our notions of love and passion.
