BBC Radio Ulster - This One Time on the Border, Series 1, That Silly Border

Comedy anthology series. This week our storytellers share tales of the day the border went down, illegal cock-fighting, and a masked granny on a mission to see her grandchild.

To mark 100 years of Northern Ireland, Sean, Margaret, Ryan and Orla meet each week to share tales and myths about the border, and they never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Sean tells a far-fetched story about how one man was affected the day the border was drawn.
Margaret shares the tale of the cockfighting champion who used the border to defy the law.
Orla tells a recent story about a masked granny on a mission to see her new grandchild in the middle of a pandemic. 

This One Time On The Border was written by Michael Patrick and Oisín Kearney. This episode stars Frankie McCafferty, Emer Casey, Stefan Dunbar, Aoibheann McCann, Michael Patrick, Oisín Kearney and Oliver Callan. It was produced by Marc McElroy.
