Episode: ‘The Big Man’ - Suzanne Breen profiles Ian Paisley, from rabble rouser to ‘Chuckle Brother’
Description: Ian Paisley was the the founder of both the DUP and the Free Presbyterian Church. He was the firebrand preacher and uncompromising street agitating politician always seeming to prefer confrontation. But in the end, he compromised, sitting down in joint-office with Sinn Féin’s Martin McGuinness, becoming one half of the so-called ‘Chuckle Bros’. Joining Ciarán Dunbar to discuss Ian Paisley’s career, from a very personal point of view, is the Belfast Telegraph’s political editor - Suzanne Breen.
