The final episode of the season has me talking to Bernard Jackman about his time at Newbridge College.
Birch lifts the lid on learning German, Irish language residential trips and faking the plague in a bid to fool the Matron.
Buy Birch's autobiography 'Blue Blood' here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bernard-Jackman-Blueblood-Inside-Leinster/dp/0956359825
Watch the short film "Yu Ming is Ainm Dom" for a brilliant introduction to the Irish language.
