Anyone here remember this Irish Company that made cartoons based on classic works of literature?

Yep. They were based out in Dun Laoghaire. Gone since the early 90s.

The animation was never at the same level of Disney though, but then again it was usually made for TV stuff anyway. A lot of their films are on youtube.

Interesting point about it was the fact that the studio was set up and was producing films while still training the Irish crew.
