Northern Irish views of The Republic of Ireland, Belfast City, 1965

Meeting between Taoiseach Seán Lemass and Captain Terence O’Neill prompts a new look at traditional attitudes. Following the historic meeting of Irish Taoiseach Seán Lemass with Northern Ireland premier Captain Terence O’Neill in January 1965, Telefís Éireann commissioned several documentaries looking at relations between the North and South of Ireland. The meeting had been the first official leaders’ meeting in 40 years and prompted a fresh look at traditional attitudes. ‘Divided We Stand’ was written, produced and presented by northern Protestant John Hutchinson and looked at the Republic of Ireland through northern eyes. In these vox pops from the programme, Belfast Protestants and Catholics give their views on life south of the border. ‘Divided We Stand’ was broadcast on 15 April 1965.
