- Scenes from Clonmel on a quiet afternoon in early spring.
Farmers, workmen and children on the streets of Clonmel are caught on film as they go about their business. Most are more than happy to wave to the RTÉ camera crew.
‘Ballymagash’ was born out of the earlier satirical programme ‘Hall’s Pictorial Weekly’ which featured the fictional village. The first episode of ‘Ballymagash’ was broadcast on 10 January 1983; the series was produced by John Keogh and Peter McEvoy and ran for 10 episodes. Similarly to ‘Hall’s Pictorial Weekly’, ‘Ballymagash’ opened with scenes from various villages and towns in Ireland.
Ballymagash was a fictional any town that was not too far away from many an Irish town. While presenter Frank Hall and producer John Keogh never specified the exact geographical location of Ballymagash, it was billed in the RTÉ Guide of 7 January as,
A town a few miles from almost anywhere in Ireland.
This episode of ‘Ballymagash’ was broadcast on 14 February 1983.

You can't get any more Irish than this don't you just love it

The late Fly Flynn and his beautiful Mom.So many happy memories of the Flynn family around this time.
Can I go back to them days, a time machine anyone please come for me. Thanks for the memories 💚
I was 21 then from N Tipperary..everything looked so familiar..the clothes the cars the black bikes etc..
I was 12 and it looks so familiar ... love it!
Lovely times
We didn't realize what we had until it's gone😊
Yes, how the rules have taken our freedom, our country taken over by EEC
Utterly enchanting video - thanks for uploading.
Happy, free and safe. What a beautiful country we used to have.
100 %.. very innocent times...
Yes, I can't help but feel that something has gone wrong and we're now going in the wrong direction.
@@bryanpatrickmchugh 100 %.... irreversible
I grew up in those times too, am also a bit nostalgic in spite of my childhood being repressed and laden with guilt. My parents weren't monsters -- they did the best they could, but that was all they knew how. (Being obsessively religious was a factor.) But yeah, I'd say being a kid these days -- it's hard to get away from your phone. Likewise for a high percentage of adults I guess.
It was nice times but there were underlying issues too. Remember Ann Lovett and the Kerry babies ... lots of children being abused too. There's never a perfect time... every era has it's challenges.
I was 10 years old then. My Grandparents were from Clonmel, what a shock they would have if the saw Clonmel and Ireland now. An Irish Ireland is fading away.
Agree 100%
This is what the call progress,,,,
@fedmcglowie7240 Well it's going to be a lot worse for the generations to come, they will be far more jealous of you than you are of me sadly.
@@maryfox7440 Yes the Plantation is progressing along very nicely for our Government.
my late father came from Clonmel his surname was Kiely,also my late cousin used to have a paper column called pat Kiely says,
sadly i cant remember the name of the paper.
My son was born in this year wow!
Halls Pictorial Weekly. "Ballymagash 2 Miles" added to the sign at the end. Those signs were legendary, alas many a person died because people swung them around through divilment and an ambulance went the wrong road...........
A lovely vidio ,with very friendly people
Can we get an Irish Ireland again?
Happy time
Look at Ireland now🤔.unrecognisable.
I loved that Ireland
How blessed this country has always been.. how happy everyone looks ..wow .. beautiful ireland ..i hope it stays the way it is ..love from india..
Back in the day when Ireland was Irish , much better times
You will not be able to reverse the 10th invasion that's happening right now before our eyes.
I'd say autumn not spring
Lovely !
Hillman Hunter at the end there?
It's a Humber Sceptre I think. Same stable though - Rootes in Coventry. They just changed grilles and interiors and produced a few different iterations of the same model. Singer Vogue was another one.
@@JohninRosc thanks 👍🏼 didn't know there were so many variants. We had the Hillman Hunter when I was a kid
They were licensed to be made in Tehran as the Paykan. In ‘78 I bet over 70% of all passenger cars were Paykans..
@@JohninRosc No it's a hunter alright. The last of the line Hunters used the sceptre grille. You can see that other than the grill the car has very basic trim and wheels. A sceptre would have had a vinyl roof, tinted glass, more chrome, snazzy hub caps and overriders on the bumpers.

Not a sign of a mobile phone
Ballymagash was replacement to Halls Pictorial Weekly upload a advert for Bisto gravy soon.
The good owl days 😢
Nostalgia can be a bit deceiving. Ireland may have been predominantly Irish back then but god was it so insular and quite frankly oppressive. The church was up to all sorts, that poor girl who died giving birth in a graveyard etc. I think the influx of foreigners has been good for Ireland - made it more broad minded and tolerant. People are basically the same no matter where you live and it's a bit rich for us to be moaning about immigrants when we had so much emigration and experienced such discrimination abroad ourselves.
I don't think you understand, but you are going to be replaced into an insignificant powerless minority by them in your own country as we see happening.
My god you are naive,go back to watching RTE.
Tone you are cynical, Lar is not being naïve.
Back when Ireland was Irish
