Reeling in the Years

Season 5 Episode 6: 2005

Reeling in the Years highlights key events of 2005, including Cork becoming the European City of Culture, Waterford hosting the Tall Ships, and Dundrum’s new shopping centre. Internationally, it marked the Live 8 concerts, Hurricane Katrina, the death of Pope John Paul II, and the 7/7 London bombings. Domestically, the Shell to Sea campaign opposed a gas pipeline in Co. Mayo, with the 'Rossport Five' jailed for 94 days. Belfast mourned George Best, while the Sony Playstation and Xbox 360 launched. Eddie Hobbs’ Rip-Off Republic was a TV hit, and a photo of Minister Willie O'Dea backfired after he was pictured pointing a gun at a camera.
