Hidden Histories: Harland & Wolff

The name of Harland and Wolff was evoked this week with the tragic loss of the Titan and its crew. But earlier in the year, you may have missed the news that the company - once the most significant of its kind in industrial Belfast - had received an enormous new contract, one which will see the first ships constructed by them in Belfast for decades. Recent times have been difficult for H&W, but could the creator of the Titanic find a place in the modern world? Donal Fallon joins Gavan for another episode of Hidden Histories to discuss.
