A final farewell to Seó Spóirt

The last edition of Seó Spóirt on TG4 goes out this evening, much to the general dismay of the sport-loving public. The cancellation after 11 years is still raw for the show’s team. They spoke to Michael Moynihan.

Friday nights aren’t going to be the same from now on with the disappearance of Seó Spóirt. Sean Ó Cualain was the programme’s series producer and his brother Eamon was director and producer. When it began, they saw it as a general sports preview show with a leaning towards Gaelic games.

“At the start Ireland were doing quite well in rugby, this was around 2005/6,” says Sean Ó Cualain.
