      Indeed. It wasn't "On the spot " though - The WYWH team would have done a "recce" maybe two or three weeks before filming. Anybody featured in the programme would have been asked if they were willing to be interviewed on camera for the show beforehand. If they agreed, a specific time and date would be arranged that was suitable for everyone. Also Judith probably did a rehearsal with anybody who appeared in the show before they filmed the interview.

      The Port at Rosslare Harbour has had a billion euro spent in redevelopment (over budget run by OPW).
      Worked on the site for a few months.
      The M11 runs all the way down to Oilgate, it was single lane road passing through busy little towns & bottlenecks all the way from Dublin to Rosslare until EU money built the first phases of the M11.
      2 hours from Wexford town to central Dublin now (in uncongested times).
