( ], }/ U! U5 Q. Y+ s- R- r'The Forgotten Irish' explores the livelihoods of these emigrants in post war Britain   their reasons for leaving and their lives now in a very different contemporary Britain or Ireland. As the production company involved,authentic nfl jerseys china, Animo Television, tells IFTN: "Whether motivated by circumstances, economics or emotions they left behind a country that was enduring some of the darkest days of her history   an Ireland that could never have imagined or hoped for the Celtic Tiger.

Raised in orphanages and institutions,replica nfl jerseys, they had little or no information about their family origins. Their attempts to create a life and an identity were often hampered by hostility and rejection in Ireland and Britain."

In conversation with IFTN the producer of 'The Forgotten Irish', Alan Gillespie,all nba logos, observes that "everybody is aware of the large scale emigration that happened but we came across so many different experiences and we wanted to tell these stories whilst also acknowledging the contribution made by these Irish people to the rebuilding of post war Britain." The team also sought to lay particular emphasis on the various specific groups of Irish emigrants such as the 14,where to get baseball jerseys,000 former residents of Irish orphanages and institutions who made their way to Britain and never returned to Ireland, as Alan comments, "these people were coming from institutions to a British community that didn't want them, so they didn't like being in Britain but neither did they want to return home to Ireland because it was a place where they didn't feel like they belonged."
The documentary's director,Wholesale Shop Here - Cheap Authentic Boca Juniors Soccer Club Jerseys From China Free Shipping For Sale, Maurice Sweeney, explains that this was usually due to a feeling on the part of these 14,000 that they had no real connections with Ireland. He also illustrated that the nature of Ireland's small,Top Quality Authentic Cheap Cycling Jerseys From China Free Shipping, tightly knit communities did not allow for privacy and points out that during the making of the documentary "people would talk about their lives if the programme being made was to be screened in Britain but they would react very differently if they were told it was going to be shown in Ireland,nhl concept jerseys, in case anyone they knew would see it and remember them. There's a huge sense of loneliness and shame there."
Sweeney tells IFTN that he was surprised that many of the female Irish emigrants, of whom there were 1,400 to every 1,wholesale jerseys online,000 men,nhl jerseys cheap china, leaving Ireland are now very proactive in charitable services in Britain.

The overall goal of the project he tells IFTN is "to give a gentle but honest portrayal of the Irish emigrants a lot of whom have never had their stories told."
TV3 Director of Programming, Ben Frow said: "The forgotten Irish have for too long been neglected by Irish society. It's only right that TV3 should draw attention to the emotional and financial sacrifices that these people made and are still making on behalf of their families and their country."
