People Who Died (8 Viewers)

"In December 2009, Clarke and McGowan appeared together on the RTÉ One reality television special Victoria and Shane Grow Their Own in which they attempted to tend to their own vegetables at an allotment in Dublin"

how come i have no memory of this?
 

The Irish novelist John McGahern, himself a onetime London resident, said the most important thing any storyteller needs is "first, a way of seeing". Story-making is a matter of intense perception before it is a matter of style.
Shane, an oversimplified figure, had a unique way of seeing which arose from his complex identity. He was Irish and English, rural and deeply urban, punk and poet, true believer and upstart. He was reverent and rude, a very knowledgeable man and an iconoclast, smalltown and metropolitan at the same time.

Lovely stuff

I once showed Bosco to an English girlfriend. She was quite convinced that, and quite impressed by, the fact Frank was quite drunk. It was good television.

Frank died, not Bosco.
