Gosh, the oldest was 75, in today's society she looks 95. We have a president in the US much older than her. Look like all sincere and beautiful people, how poorer we are without them.
No disrespect to the fine people who participated in these programmes but why in the name of god did RTE have to subject the young people of Ireland to this on ‘prime time’ tv in the 1970s...the absolute definition of complete depression for kids who were already subjected to ongoing violence in schools by, in many cases deranged teachers. How did we survive??!
Boscos_box Well said. It was a great era. There was more respect’ for culture. The senior citizens had to get their turn too’ which they did. What will today’s youth remember’ when they get old.? They haven’t a clue what came before them. It will be sad if the only archive they will leave from the present time’ will be boy bands u2 and country and Irish. We owe a hell of a debt’ to the generation featured here. This show debuted when Ireland had only 1 television channel’ and there were no computers in Ireland.
