Nad olid sündinud Manchesteris, elanud aga 1958. aastast Austraalias, kus trio oli juba tõusnud juhtivaks popgrupiks. Publik suhtus sellesse vaimustusega. Aastail 1968 1969 müüs Bee Gees 10 miljonit singlit ja 3 miljonit heliplaati. Vendade vahel tekkinud lahkhelid viisid ansambli 1969. aastal laiali, kuid järgmisel aastal ühineti taas, saavutamata esialgset menu. 1970.aastate keskel algas aga discobuumiga seotud suur tõus ja Bee Gees on pakkunud terve rea ülipopulaarseid laule. Üheks kõrgpunktiks kujunesid viis laulu filmi ,, Laupäevaõhtune palavik" (1977) taustamuusikana. Ansambel ise filmis ei esinenud. 1977. ja 1978. aastal anti ansamblile Grammy auhind.

a. rajati Dublinis iiri rahvuslik katoliiklik ülikool. Hakati välja andma ajalehte "Ühinenud Iirlane," asutaja A. Griffith. Teravalt seisis päevakorral Iirimaa tulevik ja iirlaste püsimine rahvusena. Moodustati uus rahvuslik-poliitiline organisatsioon Sinn Fein (Meie Ise). Sinnfeinid rõhutasid, et on vaja luua kodumaine tööstus, pangad, kooperatiivid jne. Boikoteeriti Inglise kaupu. Probleeme tekitas olukord Põhja-Iirimaal asuvas Ulsteris, kus suurimaks tööstuslinnaks oli Belfast. Lõviosa siinsest tööstusest oli Inglise kapitali käes. Belfasti tööstusest ei olnud iirlastel mingit kasu, sest tooraine toodi sisse ja valdav osa toodangust läks mujale. Tööliskonna moodustasid suures osas võõrad (inglise protestandid), kes ei tunnustanud iirlaste õigust oma maale. Poliitiliselt pooldas Sinn Feini reformimeelne tiib võitlust autonoomia eest, kus kõrgeimaks võimuks pidi aga jääma Inglise kuningas. Radikaalne tiib nõudis rahvuslikku

Britain's highest peak, Ben Nevis (1343 m) lies not far from Fort Williams. The Scottish flag has a white cross on a blue background. It is also on the Union Jack. Northern Ireland is the smallest part of the UK as it only covers about 5500 square kilometres. About half of the 1.7 million inhabitants live in or around Belfast, the capital, in the eastern coastal region. The centrepiece of Northern Ireland's geography is Lough Neagh, at 151 square miles (392 km²) the largest freshwater lake both on the island of Ireland and in the British Isles, and the third largest lake in Western Europe. A second extensive lake system is centred on Lower and Upper Lough Erne in Fermanagh. Northern Ireland don't have an official flag any more nor a coat of arms. Due
of the young". Trudgill (2001) approaches the question with an apparent reserve and justifies his point of view in practical terms; the present sociolinguistic conditions are not favourable for EE to spread in the whole of the UK. First of all, London is not the only large urban centre; therefore it has not exclusive rights to influence the speech in all the regions of the country. Next, such centres as Belfast, Dublin, Cardiff, Glasgow, Newcastle, Nottingham, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham and Bristol have been reported to focus the accents around them. And last but not least, "There is no parallel here to the nationwide network of residential Public Schools which gave rise to RP." The last argument has been challenged by Parsons (1998: 63-64): "there seems to be no need for this, if EE grows on the substrate of RP. If at one time in the future
