Northern Irish...

Families and friends share their most treasured holiday memories through the decades using photos, personal film, newsreel, movie and drama clips. 

From daytrips to Portrush to the advent of the package holiday, from caravanning in Ballycastle to backpacking in Bolivia, from thrill seekers hitting the ski slopes to searching out secret, unspoilt destinations – this documentary tells the story of how the people of Northern Ireland love to holiday. 

Stories also include holiday romance, how a trip to Portugal helped one woman recover from a serious illness, a summer spent learning French in the Alps, and a mum and daughter revisiting a holiday spent in Butlins twenty years ago, when they took part in the BBC's popular series Holiday Swaps.

Classmates share personal memories and footage of their schooldays through the decades as they navigated a uniquely Northern Irish school experience. 

Stories range from battling school through the Troubles to the advent of integrated education, suffering school dinners to the trauma of sitting the eleven plus, competing in sports days to school musical performances, coming of age and embracing glam rock with T-Rex, mod culture with the Jam, 1980s pop culture and girl power with the Spice Girls. Other stories include the role a Northern Irish boarding school played in the lives of two students, a Derry school teacher who captured school life on a cine camera and memories on both the agony and ecstasy of the school disco and formal.
