Programme 172 of LTV2 Millstreet is scheduled to be broadcast at 10.00 p.m. tonight (Thursday, 16th Dec. 2010). Seán Murphy has been diligently working on this special pre-Christmas programme and had the final editing almost completed when the editing programme being used developed a significant fault out of the blue. Despite Seán’s many valiant efforts to find a resolution to the problem, it appears that the editing machine requires some essential repairs. Therefore, tonight’s originally planned programme will not be broadcast. Very fortunately, LTV2’s William Fitzgerald has a superb programme already prepared which was to have been broadcast at a later point in our season but which is now brought forward for tonight’s trandmission. “Donncha Brings Sam Home” is the title of the programme and it relates to the truly magnificent welcome which Donncha O’Connor and members of the Cork Team and Supporters were accorded when the Sam Maguire Cup arrived in Ballydesmond on 10/10/’10 – one of the luckiest days of the century! William’s programme which was also edited by his wife, Ita, is most enjoyable and includes the wonderful performance of Liam O’Connor and the very talented Dancers who added so much to the superbly memorable occasion. Happy viewing to All. The programme is of course transmitted from Carriganima by broadcast co-ordinator, Dan Joe Kelleher. (Seán Radley for LTV2 Millstreet)
