About this episode

Tá an Dr Sorcha de Brún i ndiaidh roinnt de shaothar Shakespeare a aistriú go Gaeilge. Labhraíonn sí fán obair seo le Dáithí. Tá léirscrios déanta ag loscadh sléibhe sna Beanna Boirche leis an tseirbhís dóiteáin ag déileáil le os cionn 200 tine le cúpla lá anuas agus dar leis an tseirbhís, tá an mhórchuid de na tinte sin tosaithe d’aon turas. Labhair John Ross Mac Mathúna, an gníomhaí timpeallachta áitiúil, le Máire leis an scéal a phlé. Tá Póilín Nic Géidigh díreach pillte ar ais ó chúpla sheachtain taistil, agus insíonn sí do Chaoimhe faoin turas ar fad agus tugann sí féin agus Emma Ní Chearúil moltaí taistil s’acu féin, mar aon leis an scéal is déanaí faoi chúrsaí siamsaíochta.

Dr Sorcha de Brún is in the process of translating Shakespeare’s works to Irish. She tells Dáithí all about this work. Devastation has been caused by Mourne wildfires with the Fire and Rescue Service tackling over 200 fires in recent days - and most of those, according to the service, having been started deliberately. Máire discusses the situation with local environmental activist John Ross Mac Mathúna. Póilín Nic Géidigh has recently returned from a few weeks of traveling, and she tells Caoimhe all about her adventures and she and Emma Ní Chearúil both share their travel tips and the latest news from the entertainment world.
