Síle heads to An Gleann in Bá Fhíonáin in South Kerry where she visits Scoil an Ghleanna, the first non-denominational primary school in any Gaeltacht. She calls in to Skellig Chocolates for a taste of their treats and has lunch in the garden of a chef who cooked in exotic places all over the world but who knew his heart was always at home. At the Community Centre she sees evidence of the fantastic community spirit and the wonderful services provided there.
Steve McQueen's Small Axe is widely considered as one of the best pieces of TV in recent years.
The five-part drama anthology series told four true stories and one imagined on the subject of Britain's Caribbean history between the 1960s and 1980s.
Now, two of those programmes have inspired two more documentaries, on which McQueen is an executive producer.
Martina from Limerick who appeared last season returns to the First Dates Ireland restaurant for a second chance at finding love.
