It was the “marriage” which should never have been: once avowed enemies Ian Paisley and Martin McGuinness as Northern Ireland’s First and Deputy First Ministers. Their displays of warmth and good humour amazed the world, but was it for real? This hour-long film followed the pair on their “honeymoon” to the United States, getting the perspectives of the outsiders over there and enlisting the help of Oxford body language expert Peter Collett to decode what was really going on.
