Saw it tonight first time. Niall Vallely was on for about thirty seconds but didn't get a mention or an interview. Has he been more prominent on any of the previous shows? I have to say it's all a bit worthy, staid and slow for me. I would prefer to see Filska and/or Dochas with Nomos/Solas. I don't mind slow airs or ballads but mix it up with something else. I was looking at my watch after 15 minutes. As Darren said earlier I could not imagine the BBC airing a similar programme on English Folk music, which is a shame.
