'What Now' features an extended interview in three parts by Orla Higgins with Dr Sarah-Anne Buckley and Dr Maeve O’Rourke from University of Galway.

This episode features an interview by Orla Higgins with Daniel MacSweeney who discusses the work of the Office of the Director of Authorised Intervention, Tuam, which was set up to recover, forensically analyse, identify, memorialise, and bury with respect the human remains found at the site.

This episode focuses on Irish society and the treatment of women at a time when the Catholic Church worked with the State to control their lives on so many levels.

This episode is all about survivors’ search for identity – their search to find out who they are, who their parents were, the happiness of finding their birth mother and the heartache when relationship didn’t work out as they hoped.

This episode looks at what happened to the children when they left the institution in Tuam –some found solace when they were fostered or adopted, but others suffered physical and psychological abuse at the hands of their new families.

In this episode we hear about how the ‘Tuam Babies’ (as they were called) were ostracised at school by both fellow pupils and teachers, how the education system let them down and how opportunities provided to others were denied to them.

This episode introduces us to the Tuam Mother and Baby Institution and the memories of those who lived there providing an insight into their lives – lives of desolation and neglect, stigma and shame.
