Bonfires: 'It's just a mad two days'

In less than a week's time hundreds of bonfires will be lit across Northern Ireland.
While bonfires are seen by many as contentious and provocative for those who go to take part they are cultural tradition going back generations.
Peter Coulter has been to meet two young people - Shannon, from a unionist background who enjoys 11th night bonfires and Brendan, from a republican background who is involved in building the internment bonfires in August and asked them why they get involved each year.
