As we follow her down the hill, we fade up the score and;
REPORTER 1 (O.S.)
John, sources close to the IRA
insist they are interested in
peace, but it’s certainly hard to
square that with the latest
bombing campaign here in London
which just seems to run and
run...
REPORTER 2 (O.S.)
Security sources have told the
BBC that these latest bombs in
London are the work of so-called
‘clean skins,’ IRA terrorists who
have no previous criminal
record...
REPORTER 1 (O.S.)
The British and Irish governments
continue to work on the process
John, because they believe that
if they can come up with a
‘Declaration’ that satisfies both
sides - some are calling it a
vision of a joint future - then
there is a real chance this
conflict could finally be brought
to a close...
REPORTER 2 (O.S.)
These bombs are not, security
sources insist, the work of a
break-away group of hardliners,
but they don’t deny there are
dissidents within the IRA who are
hell bent on strangling this
peace process at birth...It is a
critical time. Pretty much
everyone is agreed on
that...peace hangs in the
balance...
REPORTER 1 (O.S)
John, the IRA is not going to get
a united Ireland. It’s not even
going to get the promise of one.
That is why some of the
movement’s hardliners view this
as nothing more than a sellout...
A CAR HORN BLARES as COLLETTE, lost in thought, steps onto
the road. The departing driver winds down the window.

Are you fucking blind?
