 Legendary Fictions of the Irish Celts: Pursuit of Diarmuid and Grainne   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Diarmuid was unhappily gifted with a ball seirce (beauty spot) on his shoulder, and Grainne, catching sight of it while sitting at the window of her Grianan (sunny chamber) while looking at him hurling, could no more avoid loving him than hapless Phaedra, her stepson Hippolytus.
A youth slain several years before by Donn, Diarmuid's father, was changed at the moment of his death into a Druidic boar, and appointed to slay at some future time the son of his murderer, but Diarjnuid had got warning at the same time not to give chase to the magic beast.
Diarmuid was at the time unprovided except with an inferior blade, but with this he struck the savage a mighty blow, which smashed the ill-tempered bronze in two, and his foot slipping, the beast tore his side open with his tusk.

 RTE.ie Entertainment - Diarmuid and Gráinne
It seems Gráinne has fallen in love with Diarmuid from afar, and her decision to accept the marriage proposal was fuelled by her desire to get near to him.
Diarmuid's initial objection to the enterprise is supplanted by a growing love for his captor, while an increasing number of psychotic felons step up to carry out the contract on his life.
The flness of the costumes and set is offset by the campness of the light-hearted chorus lines, while the alarming alacrity shown by the actors in the change of characters and situations is certainly commendable.

Several times Aengus Óg the foster father of Diarmuid rescued them when the Fianna were very close to catching them so that never once did Fionn lay eyes on them though he followed them for a year and a half.
Diarmuid and Gráinne were allowed to settle down on land that belonged to the O'Duibhne's and Fionn even relented enough to give Diarmuid a gift of land as befitted a hero who had served him well in the past.
Diarmuid thought this over and he realised that he had missed the comradeship of the old days and so he sent word to Fionn to see if he would forget their enmity and go hunting together again.

Diarmuid and Grainne rose early on the morrow, and journeyed straight westward until they reached the marshy moor of Finnliath, and they met a youth upon the moor, and the feature and form of that youth were good, but he had not fitting arms nor armor.
Diarmuid went where were Grainne and Muadan, and Muadan caught three fish for them that night; so they ate their meal, and Diarmuid and Grainne went to sleep in the hinder part of the cave, and Mauadan kept watch and ward for them.

 The Fenian Cycle
After that Diarmuid arose and stood, and stretched forth his active warrior hand over his broad weapons, and took leave and farewell of Oisin and of the chiefs of the Fian; and not bigger is a smooth-crimson whortleberry than was each tear that Diarmuid shed from his eyes at parting with his people.
Diarmuid went to the top of the stronghold, and put the shafts of his two javelins under him, and rose with an airy, very light, exceeding high, birdlike leap, until he attained the breadth of his two soles of the beautiful grass-green earth on the plain without, and Grainne met him.
Diarmuid heard Feargoir, and awoke Grainne out of her sleep, and what he said was: "I hear the henchman of Cailte mac Ronain, and it is with Cailte he is, and it is with Finn that Cailte is, and this is a warning they are sending me."

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The Justice for Diarmuid O'Neill Campaign and the O'Neill family are angered that it has taken two and a half years for this point to be reached and for the decision to be made not to charge anyone.
This coupled with the evidence that Diarmuid's head was stood upon when he was lying on the floor bleeding to death, that he was dragged down the stews of the house to the street and there denied medical treatment for 25 minutes, cannot honestly result in no further action.
However, we welcome the decision by the PCA to release their report to the public and feel that this decision is as a result of the immense depth of feeling in the Irish community and the family, friends and supporters of Diarmuid O'Neill.

Diarmuid went where were Grainne and Muadan, and Muadan caught three fish for them that night; so they ate their meal, and Diarmuid and Grainne went to sleep in the hinder part of the cave, and Muadan kept watch and ward for them.

 United Kingdom: Questions remain after the inquest into the killing of Diarmuid O'Neill
He remembered running to the door and pushing Diarmuid O'Neill backwards after he had fired the second bursts of shots, which conflicts with the evidence of the pathologist who stated that when the last shot was fired, Diarmuid O'Neill was already collapsing backwards.
The origin of a patterned bruise on Diarmuid O'Neill's head, which according to Dr Iain West could have resulted from ''an individual treading on his head'', could not be determined during the inquest as none of the police officers remembered any action which could have led to it.
Amnesty International's continuing concerns focus on the extent to which the inquest was unable to determine the truth; on revelations during the inquest concerning the use of CS gas; on the general planning of the operation including the rehearsal procedures; and on some aspects of the Coroner's summing up.
