He wasn't able to give away much apart from it's explosive start which is kicked off last and the fact that calling it "brutal" is an understatement. With each participant being tested mentally and physically with no sleep. The aim being to be one of very few to pass selection into the Army Ranger Wing. Eoin is one of many Cork representatives on the show, with Billy Holland and Setanta Ó hAilpín also taking part.Catch up with episode one of Ultimate Hell Week – The Professionals on the RTE player now or Wednesday’s at 9.35 on RTE One.

Before The Rainbow... And After is participatory arts project produced in association with Cork Gay Project culminating in the launch of an art publication (book of photography, collage images and poetic text) and film piece exploring and reflecting the experiences of older, marginalised gay men. Produced in collaboration with high profile UK artist and facilitator, Mark Storor, Creative Producer Claire Ryan, filmographer Cathal MacGabhann (band member of The Altered Hours) and photographer, Carolyn Collier, in a process of shared conversation, exchange, action and dreaming. Through the arts process, people of different ages, nationalities and ethnicities have participated in the creation of beautiful pieces of artwork, through the telling of stories that have been unheard, that have been forgotten, that need to be re-remembered, and that are yet to happen and make their way into the public realm. The project saw 10 older GBTQI++++ people working with arts facilitator Mark Storor over the course of the last nine weeks, taking part in practical, participatory workshops where they developed a creative language together, to tell their stories. The outcome is this beautiful publication and film piece reflecting the men's stories and experiences through a variety of artistic mediums - collage, photography, costume design, film.To see Before the Rainbow visit: Home - Gay Project
