Do Paramilitaries Lie Awake at Night?
Episode 2 of 5
A deeply segregated society emerges as the violence escalates, the British Army beds down and paramilitary groups police many working-class areas.
It's 1972, and community divisions have deepened and intensified. Many working-class Catholic and Protestant communities are in the grip of paramilitary organisations. This episode charts a deteriorating situation in which killings, explosions, intimidation and street disorder become widespread 鈥� with devastating and often lasting effects.
