Jimmy's Hall, Uilleann pipes and a Victorian Railway Carriage

The first amateur production of the play, Jimmy's Hall, to be staged at The Patrician, Carrickmore, Co Tyrone.

Anne Marie talks to Matty McGurk, Secretary of The Patrician Players, ahead of their latest production, Jimmy's Hall, a play based on the true story of a man called Jimmy Gralton, who re-opened a hall in Leitrim in the early 1930s before being driven out because of clerical and political opposition.
12-year-old Uilleann Piper, Seamus McLean, makes musical history by winning three All Ireland Fleadh gold medals at the same event.
And the Downpatrick & County Down Railway group set out to restore a Victorian Railway Carriage.
