Steven Toner and his award-winning documentary about the life of his late mother Varena.

Steven Toner on how his late mother was the inspiration behind his award-winning radio documentary, and Dutch inventor Bart Jansen describes his unique animal drones.

Student Steven Toner from Enniskillen talks about his late mother becoming the inspiration behind his award-winning radio documentary “Varenaphilia” and how it’s helped him cope with her loss.  Dutch inventor, Bart Jansen, explains how and why he turned his dead cat into a flying drone and his other peculiar flying ventures.  Ireland’s Forgotten Past is explored by Turtle Bunbury in a new book as he shares tales of our often overlooked and disremembered history.    Sharon Warnock shares her love for her special toy poodle Henry Wee Wheels -  adopted from China, he’s a paralysed school therapy dog who helps the pupils of Moira Primary School; and resident chef, Paula McIntyre, creates home made gifts for Christmas with festive chocolate bark and white chocolate and ginger fudge.
