Christine Lampard hosts a special gala concert to mark 100 years of the BBC in Northern Ireland.
Recorded recently in the Waterfront Hall, Belfast, the show features performances from Clannad, Tony Hadley, D:Ream and Katharine Timoney with the Ulster Orchestra.
The event reflects the range of BBC Northern Ireland’s output and its role in community life, with support from Belfast City Council, as part of its Belfast 2024 programme.
The concert also includes specially commissioned audio-visual works from Eoin O’Callaghan, Siobhan Brown, The Darkling Air, and guitarist Rory Friers from rock band, And So I Watch You From Afar - all of which have been inspired by the BBC local programme archives.
A special arrangement of children’s street songs is performed by the choir from St Kieran’s Primary School, Belfast.
Guest presenters include Mark Carruthers, Tara Lynne O’Neill, Lady Mary Peters, Derek Thompson, Marie Jones, Tim McGarry, Hannah Peel and Gemma Bradley.
A Century Of Stories is on Sunday 27 October on BBC One Northern Ireland at 10.30pm, and also on BBC iPlayer. And will also be broadcast on BBC Radio Ulster on Friday 1 November from 7-9pm.
