Season 1

Presented by Cormac Ó hEadhra, this archive-based four-part series takes a wry look back at Ireland's love/hate relationship with elections and electioneering and how some things never change. Viewers will sympathise with the voters of 1977, for whom inflation and the cost of living were the most pressing issue in electing a government; how the Garret Fitzgerald and Charlie Haughey face-off over three elections in 18 months tore the nation apart and when, in 1997, Bertie Ahern and his team persuaded the electorate to let them manage the Celtic Tiger boom.
