(Part 1/2) With Britain engaged in the First World War in Europe, Irish rebels sensed an opportunity.

Irish revolutions had fought for independence from Britain in the past, would the Easter Rising be any different?

In this first of two-parts, Anthony and Maddy talk to Dr. Conor Mulvagh, lecturer in Irish History at University College Dublin, about the dramatic events that lead to the 1916 Easter Rising.

This episode was edited by Tom Delargy and produced by Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Charlotte Long.
