"Reeling in the 90s" features the stories that made headlines across Ireland and the world between 1990 and 1999, all set to a soundtrack of the decade’s biggest hits.

‘Reeling In The Years’ is consistently one of RTÉ’s highest-rating shows. It was recently voted the most popular home-produced TV programme ever in an RTÉ Guide poll of Ireland’s Top 100 TV shows. In one week this year, no less than four ‘Reeling In The Years’ programmes featured in the Top Ten viewer ratings charts.

‘Reeling in the 90s’ is a 170-minute double-disc DVD showcasing the highs and lows of a time when selling condoms was banned in Dublin shops, and when Ireland seemed to win the Eurovision nearly every year: when Jack Charlton led Ireland to the World Cup Finals at Italia ’90 and USA ’94: when Northern Ireland moved slowly from conflict to uneasy peace: when the linedancing craze swept the country and when mobile phones were an elusive, exclusive accessory. The 1990s also saw war in Iraq and the siege of Sarajevo: freedom for Nelson Mandela and the release of the Birmingham Six: the controversial Olympic victories of Irish swimmer Michelle Smith: the shock revelations of Ben Dunne’s payments to politicians and the Bishop Eamon Casey scandal: the beginning of
Boyzone and the end of The Irish Press.

The DVD soundtrack features music from international acts like The Spice Girls, Blur, Kylie Minogue, Take That, Fat Boy Slim, Bobby Brown, All Saints, Jay-Z, The Sterophonics and Crowded House, along with performances from Irish artists such as U2, Westlife, Daniel O’Donnell, Sinead O’Connor, The Frank And Walters, A House, Richie Kavanagh, The Corrs, B*witched and The Cranberries.
