Without doubt everyone is entitled to an opinion Shambles,at least you can see what I am getting at as you have had a look in on RTE and its sister station TG4.
It is a good few years ago but I can recall many a good folk programme produced by the BBC and without the travelogue.
Since when has bowls been featured in a folk programme?, why did they show those Morris dancers?, those fat assed prancers walloping about slapping their sticks leaves anyone connected with folk in England open to derision.
If that`s your taste your entitled to it.
