- The art of penny juggling as demonstrated by Donie Murphy from Cork City.
With a few old coins and getting the angle of a breast pocket just right Donie Murphy makes penny juggling look easy for onlookers in Cork.
This episode of ‘Hall’s Pictorial Weekly’ was broadcast on 12 April 1975.
Frank Hall’s amusing and satirical series began on 29 September 1971 with the full title ‘Hall’s Pictorial Weekly Incorporating the Provincial Vindicator’ which became known as ‘Hall’s Pictorial Weekly’.
The series allowed Frank Hall to follow his own interest in the lives of viewers throughout the country. Regarded as RTE’s flagship comedy show, it featured satirical sketches on current news stories and popular culture, as well as parody songs, comedy sketches, re-edited videos, cartoons and spoof television formats.
Very funny story about Donie
Myself and my Friend were just teenagers at the time and was very familiar with Donie and his Trick but one time we met him and he said to us "Do you want a fiver" and of course we said we did and he pulled a fiver out of his pocket and gave it to us and then said "do you want to see a trick" and we said yeah so he said "give me the fiver for a second and I'll show you something" so we gave him the fiver and quick as a flash he put it back into his pocket and said "ah lads you should have kept onto it the first time" and away he went
That's a hilarious bit I ought to try it on someone someday hahaha
😂🤣 Brilliant 👍
Ha Ha! One of my uncles pulled a similar trick on me.
Brilliant
Classically Irish! 🤣
I remember him as I walk to the shop with my grandfather my grandfather and donnie would talk and he would do his trick and I was amazed he was a very nice person lord be good to him and my grandfather
I remember this man from years ago. The Butter Exchange band were playing in Cobh and he was also there. I was fascinated by his trick.Delighted to see this video.
I feel like he could have been a terrific skateboarder
I wish we could do back to this being the normal mode of dress
This should obviously be an Olympic sport.
They'd have to do it with a credit card! 🤣
Love these old vids. Love the dude who aint amiling just lookin straight ahead with the thousand yard stare.
Donie, one for the record! Filming was taken in what is now the car park next to South Gate Bridge ( or behind the Grand Parade). Note the statue of Our Lady in the last scene - a link probably to Dun Mhuire, adjacent to Nano Nagle Bridge, and HQ in Cork for the Legion of Mary at the time.
That car parks also the site of the first viking trading post.
I was in the Legion of Mary at school.
I wish I had a pound for every novena.
Now I'm just an old atheist. (I wonder Fr McGrath would say).
He done that football move before anyone else props
He would have been a Guiness World Record holder today.
Putting this on auto repeat.
1975 Tiktok was a different place
I loved how they’re dressed. It shows self respect
All the fellows around him had escaped from the mental hospital up on the hill and turned to him in desperation and urged in unison "Give us one reason to live!?"..... after that coin trick, they all jumped in the river Lee! 🙄
Oh why Donie? 😳
Strong work 👌
Good show! I bet he got some free drinks!
What a great year!
Now that's a really useful skill to have....
A misspent childhood 😂
Love Ireland... 800 years more.
Good accompaniment music!
He would be great at Hackey-sack
i mean they are already in a circle...might as well have a hack
Everyone dressed in a tin of fruit! Love it
A Cork Northside man.. I think his name was Donie, and I think he lived in Fairhill somewhere. (🎶The boys of Fairhill🎶)
And theres me thinking Fairhill was a big shopping centre in Ballymena 🙁
I knew twas Cork allright boy. I copped the number plate on the cortina.
With words like The armoured car has won the day, it could have been a shopping centre in Ballymena, no one could sing it like Jimmey Crowley.
I think that must've been filmed in Cork, thats a 63 mk1 cortina parked by the wall.
How do you know it's a '63?
@@onepalproductions I know by the car and I know by the registration. Thats a 1963 Cork registered Mk1 Cortina.
@@seamusburke9101 I know the car (I've driven this car in the 80s) but the part of the registration that tells the year is obscured by a guy standing in front.
@@onepalproductions Wrong, its not an english car its Irish. The first letter is what tells you the year the next two tell you rhe county.
@@seamusburke9101 That would explain it - In UK, at that time, it was the last letter that denoted year, and the first 3 denoted region. Thanks.
Now that is cool as!!
What an absolute BOYOOOO
Ah Ireland in 1975, this must be on a Sunday when the pubs were shut and only shite on the tv. The day was spent either kicking coins in the air or popping up to Ulster to buy a few condoms.
You still talking shite?
Correct me if I'm wrong but this is more a skill than an actual trick?..great footage to see..
This actually real. I thought it was the actor Adrian Dunbar for the first few seconds. 😂
I need to try
Damn near looks like Shane McGowan in the background, but who's to say?
This is what life was like before the internet. People used their free time to learn new skills and enrich themselves and their community. lol
lol funny briliant
Should have been a footballer. He'd put Mac' Ronaldinho to shame that boy would. 🍀 🇮🇪 🇧🇷 ⚽
It's Roy Hodgson
Dowtcha Donie boi.
Are there any characters like Donie or Andy Gaw in Cork these days?
A crackhead called Bobby that eats anything for a 5er
Holy Joe is still around!
I bet he pulled the chicks!
Who sings the Song ???
This was controversial at the time as nobody likes a show off
I like a talented person... Only envious people call talented people a show off
Nick mk1 cortina !
I thought it was a Harry Enfield sketch.
B Jesus he’s kicking a coin look!!
But could he score a goal 🤪
irish people were easily impressed
Yes Festus and we still are and proud of it. Weren't you the village idiot on Rawhide or Gunsmoke or one of those old westerns?
@@seamusburke9101 haha....good one!
I wonder if he'll play for the irish football team 🤔
We could do with him now 😂😂
@@paulgorman3001 Couldn't Be Much Worse
@@danbreen6946 I know man shocking right now we are
Jasus barcalona or real Madrid should have signed him up
That’s all well and good but can ya do it with both feet?
Clearly special effects...
Sure I've seen him in the Cirque de soleil .
Wonder could he do it keeping his mouth closed?
Did anyone,else notice the fairy up in the,hay loft .
Grown men intrigued by a man flicking coins into his pocket. Lol 😆
The talents that Netflix, youtube et al did away with!
Only a scots can do it better, the money always fly his pockets
A one trick pony
Who are ye, Dunphy?
Aye one more trick than you eh.
