May the force stay away from Sceilig Mhícíl

Sceilig Mhícíl and Star Wars: worlds apart and both mighty forces... I read (on Irish Examiner July 24) with concern that a second Star Wars film crew may yet descend on the ‘world heritage site’ of St.Fionán, west of The Iveragh Peninsula in Co. Kerry.

This shrine is such a huge part of our Irish heritage. I am saddened to contemplate the invasion of this cultural property and its ecological environment and the resulting disruption of nesting wildlife therein.

The Irish Film Board remain tight-lipped and there is no one available for comment, no vehement denial emerging, which is more alarming.
