Irish Telly Tonight.

[neil cooney 10,416]

TG4 tonight at 8, Madrai na nGael, an insight into the working lives of the Kerry beagle.

This series was about the Wolfhound last week so I'll presume the next few weeks will cover the terrier breeds.

[kevin em 342]

Yes Neil they are doing a programme on all the native breeds

It should be in english but if not there should be subs.

[neil cooney 10,416]

It'll probably be in Irish, good thing too, we can't be giving the Sassenachs our secrets, LOL.

[leethedog 3,071]

Funny that I'm half Welsh and half Irish

[Squirrel_Basher 17,100]

Its in Irish so we don't have to listen Neil lol.

I don't care if it is in Irish. You can stick it ! We have Countryfile that caters for the true interests of the countryman. Things like organic uni-cycle racing in the Peak District or a couple of retired ( at the age of 23 ) advertising executives from London producing alcohol free ( please drink responsibly ) mead and selling a thimble sized bottle at £ a pop. Hunting, shooting and fishing is just nasty and no one in the British countryside has any interest in it anymore. Not the ones who travel in on a weekend or buy up property anyway, and there the ones who count.

Nothing like a Ciarrai beagle chasing a madra rua. It's mo'r ?

[Squirrel_Basher 17,100]

Or a beagle scent trailing a hare .That's mo'r.

Very good IMO with some lovely aerial shots of packs in full cry.

Lovely to see all the ol' boys gather with their hounds on bits of rope for a hare hunt.

And great to see a show about hounds and hunting with no mention antis or trying to justify hunting.

 

Irish Setters next week.

though the narrator did say at the end, that the dogs where nowhere next to near the hares or foxes during filming.

Enjoyed that. Sound man Neil for the heads up.

[kevin em 342]

I think they are covering the Kerry blue the Wheaton terrier glen of imaal and the Irish wolfhound it was good too watch the Kerry beagle and too see them stress the point that hunting has gone on for centuries here

[smithwicks 182]

And also to see the banner man talking about hunting..

A good voice to have for hunting in Ireland..

Pitty there wasn't more like him!
