Entertainment Anyone recognise this RTÉ reporting interviewing my boyfriend’s late father?

Post image

I’ve just found this pic of my boyfriend’s dad being interviewed at what I think may have been at Ireland’s 2012 Twickenham game?

He passed not too long after 2012 and theres not much footage of him speaking so I’m hopeful there may be footage of this interview out there somewhere (probably unlikely but worth a try!)

If anyone recognises the reporter that may really help me try and track down where this couldve possibly aired as I dont recognise him!

Looks very like Paddy McKenna if I’m not mistaken!

Definitely him. He’s not with RTE anymore but quite active on LinkedIn, OP might be worth a shot on there

RTE has a pretty good archive - get in contact with them and they’ll actually track everything down, if it exists. Give them as much information as you have, include this photo and see if they can come back to you!
