What better way to return from a short break than to feature a true boxing work of art. Recent True North production ‘When Boxing Ends’ gave fans a look at the real world of professional boxing. Featuring 4 Belfast boxers - Tyrone McKenna, Brian Magee, Eamonn Magee & Ryan Burnett the documentary tells their stories and puts to rest many myths that surround world champions. Ally McKenzie is the producer/director and he chats on this episode about taking something from being an idea all the way to our screens on BBC tv. We also hear from renowned and respected sports writer & boxing expert Gavan Casey who also featured in the documentary. Jazza Dickens is back to talk about his shock at testing positive and everything that’s happened since. He sings a very special version of ‘You’ll Never Beat the Irish’ for his Irish Fam-A-Lam!!
We look at the news that’s made the headlines over the last while and at what’s likely to make the news for the week ahead.
