Denis Lehane: RTÉ now more like Dallas than Glenroe

With thousands needlessly tossed away on flip-flops and gas-guzzling cars, RTÉ is now positioned closer to the characters of Dallas rather than the honest folk of Glenroe.

For years I have been campaigning to have a Glenroe reboot. A little nod to the farming community from the bigwigs who run that mighty organisation up there in Donnybrook.

Like a donkey with long hooves in dire need of paring, it's a job, to my mind, that should have been undertaken years ago. Glenroe should have never gone off the air in the first place.
