Over a period of 20 months, hundreds of Catholics are thrown out of their jobs, homes and communities, and many of them are killed.

Historians John Regan and Gemma Clark explore the motives behind the attacks, which Eamon Phoenix tells the story of the first victim. Warning: this episode contains sounds of gunshots.
