Joe Dolan in court on drink driving charge

THERE’S no show like a Joe show – even when it comes to a courtroom showdown.

The legendary showband showman was in court yesterday to face a charge of drink driving. And following lengthy legal argument, he'll be back in court again on September 11.

Judge Mary Martin dismissed appeals by his counsel Justin McQuaid about the validity of three garda summonses issued and served in connection with the case.
