Glenroe Theme Tune

The Glenroe Theme Tune from the hit RTE series. Glenroe was an Irish television drama series broadcast between September 1983 and May 2001 on RTÉ One. The programme was a spin-off from Bracken, a short-lived RTÉ drama itself spun off from The Riordans. The series was broadcast on Sunday nights at 20.30, generally from September to May. The programme centred on the lives of the people of the fictional rural village of Glenroe (actually Kilcoole), in County Wicklow. The main protagonists were the Byrne and McDermott/Moran families, related by the marriage of Miley Byrne to Biddy McDermott. Other characters included the Roman Catholic and Protestant priests of the village (Tim Devereux and George Black respectively), Teasy McDaid, the proprietor of the local pub, Biddy's cousin Fidelma Kelly, and others. One notable character was Blackie Connors, who was one of the first traveller (gypsy) characters on television.
