I would like to put this up.Its the famous Pee Flynn interview on the Late Late Show in 1999. It is signifant in the sense that it woke people up to the Haughey regime. "A class Act". Telling Gay that that Tom Kilmartin that he & his wife is not well.This was a boiling point for Kilmartin who, as some suggest, made or made him determined to give evidence at the Tribunals. Oh, ye, his view on his daughter. This, sadly is part of Irish History. Oh yeah, Pee then trying to be honest and upfront.... you "should try it sometime"
 http://www.youtube.com Is there anything significant to this type of interview, say in another country? How many other politicans are capable of completely alienating themselves in the manner Pee Flynn did here? |

Famine / immigration related post
The first clip is produced by Pathe films in 1905.Apparently,that brought attention to famine in Ireland in that year. The film has been altered and is used to draw similarities to the early famine of 1846-50. Just ignore the music in the background and heads asking questions. http://www.youtube.com This is a clip of Irish Immigrants arriving at Ellis Island, i think in 1906 http://www.youtube.com Last edited by walrusgumble; 22-11-2009 at 14:49. |

RTÉ Archives website
As part of our history special methodology lectures in the PGDE in UCD we had a guy named Stephen Tonge in yesterday giving us a talk about online history resources. This was his second visit and he gave us a huge number of online video and audio resources covering things from Russian to German to Irish history. It was easily the most useful methodology class of the year.
One of the resources was the RTÉ Archives site which seems to have an enormous selection of video and audio clips relating to the outbreak of the troubles. He said the scene from 5 October 1968 where an RUC guy, unaware of a camera on him, wallops a Civil Rights marcher was particularly infamous. They all can be found here: http://www.rte.ie/laweb/ll/ll_t11c.html However, I cannot get the QuickTime program, which is used to play all of the clips, to work properly. I really want to check some of the stuff he was talking about. I keep getting "461 - Unsupported Transport". This happens on Chrome & Explorer. I uninstalled and reinstalled QuickTime to no avail. Would anybody know how I could solve this issue? Thanks. |
