Hector Goes

From the top of Croagh Patrick to the top of Croke Park Hector travels backwards in time and forwards along the road in an effort to find out whatever happened to God, whatever happened to going to mass and what exactly have the Holy Roman Catholic and Apostolic Church done for us?

Enough with the big dresses and the bare knuckles and the sulky races - what Hector wants to know is whatever happened to the Irish traveller? Are there any left out there? And if there are any out there, well, could they please tell Hector what being an Irish traveller actually means? So circle the wagons, throw another log on the fire, take a seat and listen up. You're about to learn a thing or two.

"The smaller the town, the bigger the crowd". Hector dives into the world of Country and Western music - Irish style - in the company of Mike Denver, Ireland's answer to Garth Brooks. With the help of a few country music giants he prepares for his debut performance in the C&W hotbed that is Castleblayney. Thanks for dancing!

Is it really impossible to run with the hare and hunt with the hounds? Or more exactly to root for the fox and hang with the hounds? Well if anybody can Hector can. From Wicklow to Limerick with gun cocked and horses shod Hector immerses himself in the really rather beautiful world of hunting and shooting. More pheasant anybody?
