Episode description

We explore one of the great mysteries of Irish history, which saw the cream of Irish Catholic society VANISH in a matter of hours. 


In 1607, the heat was on Ireland’s Catholic leaders, with rumours that the British were ready to dispose of them for their treachery. So, what did they do? Stay and fight for their followers? Not exactly. 


Shane tells Hazel about a story full of conspiracy, backstabbing and… porn?
