Thread Name: 50's Irish radio show?
Subject: 50's Irish radio show?
At our club on St. Pat's night a couple of weeks ago a radio show was mentioned which I recall hearing regularly when I was but a lad. It had a theme song:-

If your Irish, come into the parlour,
There's a welcome there for you.
If your name is Timothy or Pat
So long as you come from Ireland there's a welcome on the mat.

etc, etc.

We dont know the name of the prog, or any other details except for the catchy intro song.

One of our members has tried to find reference to it on the 'net, but to no avail. He seems to think it was broadcast on Radio Luxemburg.
However, I'm sure that there will be learned folk out there in Mudcat land who will be able to give me details and put my old mind at ease.
Thanks for any info

Regards

Andy
