Bataclan, Adele, Mercury Prize

Irish Times Off Topic

Last week's terrorist attacks in Paris targeted civilians in the streets, in cafes and most infamously in the Bataclan Theatre. Irish Times Paris Correspondent Lara Marlowe and journalist Jeremy Allen are on the line to speak with Fionn about the terrible events that took place there, the history of the theatre, and the challenge for Parisians to resume normal life in their shared spaces. Today's show also features blogger Nialler9 and Aoife Barry of the journal.ie, who discuss and dissect the long awaited new Adele album and consider who deserves this year's Mercury Music award.
