Did you stay up?

A big thank you to, clockwise from top left: filmmaker Sean McAllister, ‘Preposterous‘, Ciaran Tierney, Dermot Bohan, Johnny keenan, Neil Curran, Olga Cronin and celebrity accountant Vanessa Foran, our panel on last night’s Broadsheet on the Telly.

The show, produced by Neil and Dermot, can be viewed in its entirety above.

Presidential and Garda matters dominated with everyone getting their say PLUS…

Ciaran joined us fresh from his Irish Blog Awards success and an inspiring visit to America with Tuam survivor Peter Mulryan.

And Sean spoke about his brilliant new documentary A Northern Soul, shot in a Hull, England dealing with austerity and Brexit and described as a film of “radical empathy”.

Some swearing.

Apologies.

PS Neil’s movie choices start 55.41.

Did you stay up?

A big thank you to, clockwise from top Dermot Bohan, ‘Preposterous‘, celebrity accountant Vanessa Foran, Kevin Higgins, Gemma O’Doherty & Yvonne Hollidge, Neil Curran, Olga Cronin, Johnny Keenan and Luke Brennan, our panel on last night’s Broadsheet on the Telly.

The show, produced by Neil, can be viewed in its entirety above.

Anti-corruption activists Gemma O’Doherty, Alo Mohan, Yvonne Hollidge and Cork City Councillor Diarmaid Ó Cadhla joined us live from the aftermath of ‘The Change Makers’ meeting in Cork’s Imperial Hotel  Cork… and allowed us to witness the birth of a new political movement (starts at 53.53).

Lawyer Kevin, an advisor to the Tuam Home Survivors’ Group, sought reasons for the decision this week to exhume the remains at the site of the mass grave but to carry out no inquests.

PLUS moratorium-busting Presidential discussions.

Some swearing.

Sorry.

A non-intrusive hug to, clockwise from top left: Kevin Higgins, Johnny Keenan, celebrity accountant Vanessa Foran, Olga Cronin, Dermot Bohan, ‘Preposterous‘ and Bernard Purcell, our panel on last night’s Broadsheet on the Telly.

The show, returning after a two-week absence, can be viewed in its entirety above.

Bernard, editor of the London-based Irish World newspaper, shared his thoughts on last Friday’s Late Late Show, broadcast from the UK capital for the first time since 1967.

Bernard – with Dagenham, Essex-born Vanessa in vocal support – gently tackled the evening’s various shortcomings both inside and outside the event’s Westminster venue.

Kevin, a lawyer advising the Tuam Home Survivors’ Network, discussed the newly-released Clann Project report and revealed news of a meeting with Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and representatives of the network this Monday. Johnny renewed his call for young people to engage with the Mother and Baby home protests.

Olga, arriving late from a ‘shift in town’, briefly discussed reaction to the Disclosures Tribunal report and promised a full examination next week.

Dermot, meanwhile, showed off a new web cam and the multi-screen Broadsheet on the Telly ‘mission control’ he has rigged up in his otherwise normal, suburban bedroom. Nifty!

Some swearing.

Sorry.

Try jigging the aerial with a hanger.

Broadsheet on the Telly – audaciously extending its Autumn break to fully ‘stretch the legs’, take in the air and generally retool (stop that!) – will not be broadcasting this evening.

Sorry.

Back before you know it, they promise.
