I just thought you might be interested in a piece that we’re doing on TV3’s MidWeek show tonight about Shay Healy (above) and the impact of Parkinson’s on his daily life.

He has been remarkably open and honest about how the disease is affecting his life and both us and Shay hope that this piece may help others out there who are suffering with the disease.

TV3 is showing Alex Gibney’s award winning documentary ‘Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God’ tonight at 9pm.

It tells the story of four deaf boys who were abused by a priest in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and a subsequent cover-up which lead to the Vatican.

It summarises the Vatican’s response in three words: deny, minimise and blame.

‘The Vincent Browne Song’ by Derek Flynn.

I know it’s much too late in the day,
I really should just go and hit the hay
But people are tweeting bout Vincent, Vincent Browne

How will I sleep without knowing what poor soul
Vincent has chosen to carve a new assh*le?
Are you watching Vincent, Vincent Browne?

I know it’s crazy to stay up so late,
Especially when I’ve got to go to work at eight,
But Fionnan Sheehan’s throwing a hissy fit
And they’re always great

There’s Constantin G making all the ladies swoon
He makes an IMF report sound like he’s reading Mills & Boon
Are you watching Vincent, Vincent Browne?

What if Vincent and Willie O’Dea get in a fight?
I could watch their eyebrows duelling all night
Are you watching Vincent, Vincent Browne?

And then there’s the unbridled joy of the time
Spent watching Vincent mangle every newspaper headline
And how many times can he screw up saying, “Tweet Machine”?

Now I know the show’s not always pure gold
In fact, sometimes it’s like watching your granddad in a home
But I’m still watching Vincent, Vincent Browne
I’m still watching Vincent, Vincent Browne

More of this here.

We feel it has a pleasing bang of the Deschanel/Gordon-Levitts.
