Between 4 and 7 August, the 主播大秀 Bus from Lancashire visited the Isle of Man ... calling at Ramsey, Douglas and Port Erin.

More than 100 people shared their stories with the team over the four days, including those involved in the Isle of Man Arts Council community play "Wire and Wool".

The play focussed upon the 4,000 women who were interned on the Isle of Man during World War Two.
