If you\u2019re interested in finding out more, and to mark 25 years since the Good Friday Agreement was signed, this new BBC Radio Ulster documentary series presented by Tara Mills and Declan Harvey looks at how the peace accord was achieved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The documentary packs a punch, with four episodes only lasting twenty minutes each. The 67 page peace agreement is explored in detail, highlighting the bits that have lasted and never worked and the hurdles overcome. A lot of myths are explained too. Contrary to what you might think, the parties did not negotiate in person, and the agreement was not physically signed either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;\u201cA lot of the commentary about the Good Friday Agreement is how significant it was globally,\u201d says Mills. \u201cA lot of different places have looked at it as a template.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/fromgaytoze\"><strong>From Gay to Ze<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>A podcast looking into queer parenting in all of its forms.
