      No value on it though

      I reckon it’s included in a bailout with the Dept of Communications

      Also note the 2 mill for BAI and 3 more for SI
      So that’s as good as saying RTÉ

      Someone will be along now any minute to tell me I’m wrong

        Well. Other Voices : Courage was some of the best TV this COVID season…. I’m sure there’s more to it than that but what do I know?
