For nearly 1000 years, the tower of London has been the site of the bloody executions of some of England's most famous historic figures. And many of the tower's victims were laid to their final rest within the walls, never to escape the prison where they met their tragic end. A King, 3 Queens, A Prince, 5 dukes and many more noble men and women were buried here. Let's meet them and learn how they met their doom at the tower of London. King Edward V & Prince Richard, Duke of York (1483) Gerald FitzGerald, 9th Earl of Kildare (1534) Thomas More (1535) Cardinal John Fisher (1535) Queen Anne Boleyn (1536) George Boleyn, Viscount Rochford (1536) Thomas Cromwell (1540) Margaret Plantagenet, Countess of Salisbury (1541) Queen Catherine Howard (1542) Jane Boleyn, Viscountess Rochford (1542) Thank you to the Yeoman Warders and Historic Royal Palaces for giving us permission to film and so much excellent information.

Last week, a man in Kildare who has recently found out that his car could split in half at any moment contacted the show. Gareth Landy, a concerned motorist from Kildare, bought a car in Northern Ireland, but has now had to shelve out for another as the Irish NCT and Northern Irish MOT deemed the car roadworthy, despite being structurally unsound.Gareth joins Kieran to discuss.
Fresh concerns have been raised that Clare farmers will be impacted by a controversial €4.5bn Uisce Éireann plan to pump water from the River Shannon to Dublin. The project involves the construction of a 170km pipeline that will extract 2% of the Parteen Basin's annual flow, to supply an additional treated water source to Dublin, Meath, Kildare and Wicklow. The IFA and ICMSA have agreed a compensation package with Uisce Éireann that's understood to be worth an average of 100,000 euro for affected landowners. However, Clare IFA Chair Stephen Walsh believes it could have unintended consequences.
School principals have to face budgeting decisions every school year… but what if you were faced with the decision between free school meals or two new teachers, which would you choose?Well, that is one decision that has been taken out of the hands of Robert White, principal of Scoil Íde Naofa in Kildare, who has lost a teacher in this year's allocation — a teacher he says he would prioritise over the allocation of free school meals in his school.Robert White, Principal, Scoil Íde Naofa, Kildare joined Pat Kenny on the show this morning.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 28ú lá de mí Lúnasa, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1988 scaoileadh urchar ar Gharda nuair a bhí sé I gcoinne triúir robálaí a bhí faoi airm ag tí I gCill Dara. I 1997 dúirt an IRFU leis na chlub go gcaithfidh gach duine a bheith cláraithe chuig an árachas saoil agus árachas gortú, ionas go mbeidís ábalta imirt. I 1988 sheas Nancy Kelly ó Lissycasey as a bpost mar altra de bharr go raibh sí mar Clare's Darlin Girl. I 2005 bhí a lán tacaíocht ó ghrúpaí slatiascaireacht, oibreoir báid agus seirbhísí cuardaigh agus tarrthála don mhuiríne leis an chostas de 3 milliúin euro. Sin Oasis le The Importance Of Being Idle – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2005. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1968 chuaigh The Beach Boys chuig uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena hamhrán Do It Again. I 1972 chuaigh Alice Cooper chuig uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena hamhrán School's Out. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Jack Black I Meiriceá I 1969 agus rugadh amhránaí Shania Twain I gCeanada ar an lá seo I 1965 agus seo chuid de amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 28th of August, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1997: The IRFU told rugby clubs every one of their junior and senior players needed to be registered to life and injury insurance to play. 1988: A Garda was shot after a confrontation with 3 heavily armed raiders outside a house in Kildare. 1988: 22 year old Nancy Kelly from Lissycasey stepped out of her career as a nurse to be selected as Clare's Darlin Girl. 2005: the provision of a €3 million marina 2 km south of Killaloe had immense backing by boat operators, angling groups and search and rescue units. That was Oasis with The Importance Of Being Idle – the biggest song on this day in 2005 Onto music news on this day In 1968 The Beach Boys were at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'Do It Again'. 1972 Alice Cooper was at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'School's Out'. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor Jack Black was born in America in 1969 and singer Shania Twain was born in Canada on this day in 1965 and this is one of her songs. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

In today's episode, Róisín Ingle is joined by women's health and fitness coach Elaine Gillespie, to talk about the transformative power of lifting weights and strength training. From navigating fitness during perimenopause to returning to exercise postpartum, Gillespie explains why lifting weights isn't just for bodybuilders - it's essential for women's health, energy, and confidence at every stage of life. The pair discuss gym intimidation, how to get started if you're a total beginner, and how to tell the difference between your dumbbell and your barbell. Gillespie also shares her own personal fitness journey following the birth of her two children and why she left her career as an estate agent to set up the Kildare based fitness group, Sound Mamas. But first, Irish Times opinion editor Jennifer O'Connell is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including a quick de-brief on the two women hoping to become the next Irish president and why the lyrics of CMAT's latest song are resonating with so many.
