With the rocks that make up the island of Ireland now in place, episode two explores the island’s intricate and intimate relationship with water and ice.

At Killary Fjord, we reflect on the immense bulldozing power of the glaciers which eroded and shaped the island through thousands-of-year cycles of formidable ice ages. In Norway, we look back through a window in time to see how ice continues to carve and mould the landscape.
