A Quare Tongue
Poet Damian Gorman gets to grips with Ulster-Scots, meeting those who speak it and care passionately about its future.
Poet Damian Gorman explores his genuine curiosity for the Ulster-Scots language as he returns to the Ards peninsula, where he once lived. As he tries to understand what Ulster-Scots is – and why it matters – he’ll spend time with the world’s oldest native speaker, find out how Ulster-Scots has left its mark on Derry Girls and meet the people for whom this is very much a living language.
