In July 1985, in the little town of Ballinspittle, Cork, Ireland a bizarre event gripped the town as people saw the grotto statue of the Virgin Mary come alive. My uncle, the last statue maker in Ireland made the statue in 1955. This is the story as reported on BBC TV Newsnight (although the end is missing)
