Joseph Crilly
Ballycharles, a small mid-Ulster town near Lough Neagh.
Second-Hand Thunder is a drama that examines the interplay between the personal and the political in a small mid-Ulster town. Two pillars of the community - one a Protestant farmer, the other a Catholic solicitor - are locked in a deadly power struggle. When a young idealistic teacher attracts their attention through her cross-community work, a train of events is set in motion which haunts the community and the next generation to come.
