A lot of bad stuff was happening in Ireland then which has thankfully come to the light of day.

I tried but I just kept thinking what a curmudgeon you are and how you need to get over yourself.

Wow, thanks, must be some great stuff in the RTE archives.

I love stuff like this from a more innocent age! Interestingly, the song is the English language version of 'Un jour un enfant' which was joint winner of the 1969 Eurovision Song contest for France.

Of course, on RTE Television, they don't have any commercial interruptions on Christmas Day. When I first came over to Ireland in 1972, I was suprised that they had ads, but only between programs or one or two times during a movie. Irish TV is very intersting, don't you think?
@fairhillnorrie No, and there were no battered wives, no drunk drivers or bad priests. And sure even the leprachauns were able to go around with thier pots of gold. Ah, the good old days.

I don't suppose any continuity announcements survive from before the programme starts or after it ends, do they? That would be an excellent find. I haven't seen much RTE presentation from this era, if any!
