Wednesday English With Charlie: Life in a Divided Country

ELR Charlie has just returned from his summer holidays, and once again he has news to share from the outside world. This time he visited a friend in Northern Ireland, a country whose people still bear the memory of The Troubles (which only ended in 1999). Since then, a peacebuilding process has been ongoing, with various ups and downs. What is life actually like in Northern Ireland? How do people here remember the conflict?
