John Toal broadcasts live from the Norman Family Fun day at Carrickfergus Castle as part of the Â鶹Éç's Hands On History series. Chef Paula McIntyre cooks up some medieval morsels.

This week on the Saturday Magazine programme John Toal and the team put on their tights and grab their shields as they invade Carrickfergus Castle for the Norman Family Fun Day.

John joins the children from St. Nicholas' primary school on a treasure trail to solve the mystery of the golden shield and there will be Norman artefacts on show and a medieval feast fit for a king!

Paula bakes one of Ireland’s most traditional breads – Barmbrack with a refreshing autumn fruit compote while celebrity Master Chef, Lisa Faulkner encourages us all to celebrate the annual harvest festival.

Big Telly’s Spring Chickens are back by popular demand, local older people celebrating their creativity and imaginations, all part of Age Awareness week starting this Saturday.

So join John Toal at Carrickfergus Castle for all this and more on Â鶹Éç Radio Ulster just after the 10 o’clock news.
