The Joy (TV3 Mountjoy documentary mini-series)

rphair

A friend of mine is dying to find this by-gone, well-recommended show from TV3, aired beginning November 2015:

• https://www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/the-joy-documentary-on-life-in-mountjoy-to-air-from-monday-1.2421606
• http://www.independent.ie/entertainment/television/8-things-we-learned-from-tv3s-compelling-fascinating-documentary-the-joy-34182853.html
• https://www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/the-joy-monday-on-tv3-1.2421654
• https://www.tv3.ie/pr_sub.php?type=1&view_pr=771

Trailer link from the producer (I don't even see a hint how to buy it here):

• https://vimeo.com/182850925

Any link would be appreciated that would help us beg, borrow or steal it (in a figurative sense of course), even as a disc or paid download...

For Reals

There was a very good one by RTE.

Here's a link to that.

I saw that link too, though it's obviously not the same one. I've heard there were a number of good documentaries on Mountjoy Prison with a couple downloadable from YouTube. Still we are interested in the newer production if anyone can get a handle on it.

Bite the bullet, contact the producers & ask:

good suggestion about contacting the producer (didn't follow that lead since there didn't look like product sales on their web site). If any interest, I will post an product link here if I find one.

(I have heard none of the videos about Mountjoy currently on YouTube quite measure up to this series... which would be pulled down by the YouTube bot as a copyright infringement if it were ever posted there.)

Strange bump but...... if you're still looking for this it's on Amazon Prime
