Animated DVD and Book about The Giant's Causeway
We hear excerpts from The Giant’s Causeway Project featuring Benandonner, the Scottish giant and Finn MacCool, his Ulster rival.
The project is an animated DVD and book by Whitehead-based children’s author, illustrator and graphic designer, Stephen Hall.
Stephen has made up new characters to go along with the two famous giants - including Finn’s wife and cat - and has produced the DVD in five different languages including an Ulster-Scots version voiced by Ian James Parsley.
Stephen chats to Liam Logan about his Ulster-Scots roots, about his interest in the story behind The Giants Causeway and the importance of using humour to bring it to life.
