Who was Saint Patrick? And why is he so important in Ireland? And how should you experience Saint Patrick in Ireland?

This time we are joined by Martina Purdy, former BBC political correspondant, turned nun and now guide at the Saint Patrick Centre as well as the director of the centre, Dr. Tim Campbell.

Bonus info: the Irish name "Niamh" (pronounced "Neeve") means Saint in Irish.
