"Your Bad Self" - a comedy sketch show from 2010 - I especially like the ones with a Bray reference as I grew up there. :mrgreen:

I married a woman from Bray and we're living with her father at the moment, with a view to a permanent move.

Mike Murphy's candid camera from the 1979/82 series - "The Live Mike".

Some episodes were great craic while others fell a bit flat - this is a goodie. :mrgreen:

Paths to Freedom

There are better scenes than that, but most other clips on YouTube are full episode.

Hall's Pictorial Weekly (1971-1980)

A bit dated now but fairly subversive in its day. Ironically, Frank Hall was also the Irish Film Censor from 1978.

Eamon Morrissey and Frank Kelly (Father Jack) were stalwarts of the show.
