My uncle, grandfather, and great grandmother all feature. Brings tears to my eyes every time.
Amazing! It means a lot to me that you're watching this. Who are/were they, if you don't mind me asking? I'd be very interested to know more about the relationships between the people involved.
SocKy? Are you still here?
Lovely to see and hear. I lived in Spiddal in 1955/6 and knew May and Martin Standuin and their children, also Festy’s wife Eileen and their boys. I only met Festy once as he was away working in England. Spiddal, at that time, with its pink granite rocks (I have a little pile of then, here in the room with me) it’s music, its flowers and cottages and Moira Coyne delivering the milk from the donkey cart, has to be my favourite place on earth.

Thanks for watching!
@@TheFolkRevivalProject Your welcome, thanks for uploading!
Super duper work.
Thank you!
This is fabulous, is there a fullframe coloured version of the video anywhere? My husband’s father, uncle & grandmother is in this. We’ve only seen the black & white version. Amazing to see them in colour.
I'm so glad people with a personal connection to this video are seeing and appreciating it!
Unfortunately, the colour is completely artificial. I actually used an amazing online tool which automatically adds the colour czcams.com/video/MbORQNaKbPE/video.html
That means some of the colours of the clothes etc may be inaccurate, but I liked the overall effect!
Can you acknowledge the origins of this film? This looks like a BBC TV production and might have been one of their travelogue-type short films about different part of the British Isles the BBC made during the 50s and 60s.
I honestly have no idea what the origins of this film are. I can't find anything about it online other than people sharing the CZcams video. I simply found it on CZcams and did what I could to make it more widely accessible!
You can be sure it wasn't rte, you'd be shot that if caught carrying a fiddle never mind playing it...
Ia thar Martin Byrnes on thw fiddle
@@ianhester4527 It is indeed Ian, the same Máirtín Byrnes everyone knew in later years with the long hair and fluffy beard. An absolute gentleman he was. Lamond Gillespie is working on an album of Máirtín and that should be something special.
Filmed in my Grandmother's house in Baile an Domhnalláin, an Spidéal in 1961 by the BBC over 2 days and 2 nights. Broadcast in 1962 as one of a series of programmes on the arts called 'Monitor'.
