Soft rain, wetting rain, fierce rain, drizzle...there are many types of Irish rain and author Carlo Gebler is intimately familiar with them all. The clouds open and it simply doesn't stop as Carlo sets out from his home in rural Fermanagh to show how rain has saturated Ireland's poetry and shaped his own character. With poems by Eavan Boland, Patrick Kavanagh, Paula Meehan, Brendan Kennelly, Winifred Letts and Gerald Dawe. Producer: Conor Garrett
