Episode overview
With communities across Northern Ireland, from the end of the 1960s Lisburn suffered through three decades of political violence, "The Troubles". For Lisburn the first killings came in 1976: in the course of the year, five Catholic residents died as a result of gun and bomb attacks by the Ulster Defence Association and the new Ulster Volunteer Force, loyalist paramilitary groups that subsequently entered their own feud.
