    :D

    My young offspring watches this channel the odd time.
    At 17:57 yesterday it showed about 90 seconds of footage of some happy smiling young girls in a bell tower ringing on the bells. Then they run up to the top tower and look over the city listening to the start of the angelus.
    I thought I was seeing things.
    Any other parents spotted this before?

    Very interesting timing of broadcast. I wonder if it will be repeated.

    Doesn't it change to rte +1 at 6? Overspill?

    No it used to stay on until about 6:45 and stays on til 7 now.

    I'm partial to your abracadabra,

    I'm raptured by the joy of it all.

    This the tower in Shandon in Cork? It's on all the time. RTE Jr have about 7/8 different timefillers like this, with kids doing various things, and they're repeated endlessly.

    Any kids going outside to listen to the Muslim call to prayer? :D
    I'm thinking alot of the timefillers are either general or christian related,

    This "advert" features regulalry around 0800 as well. My kids see other kids ringing bells and running around an old building. Religious connection = zero. You're looking for reds under the bed OP...

    That's the only one that involves anything church related, but I think it's just the church is a local landmark.
    Most are summer themed actually.

    Bells of Shandon are a very iconic landmark in Cork City on St Anne's Church of Ireland church.

    You can play almost anything you like on them ... Jungle Bells etc etc

    Definitely not the Angelus.

    You can stand down OP. It is not the Angelus and bells will not harm your child.

    17.57 again today.
    It must be pure complete coincidence that is on at 17.57 again of a Sunday.

    Dem's christians are smarter than I thought...
