Cillian Murphy and Yvonne McGuinness say that the programming at the new Phoenix Cinema, Dingle will reflect the fact that this is Ireland's only Cinema located in a Gaeltacht area. Relief in West Kerry that the property didn't fall to property developers! 🎬 #TakeTwo @NuachtTG4

Well done to the students of Gaelcholáiste Reachrann who walked out of their classes yesterday in protest at the Department of Education! The students in the school, which is on the Northside of Dublin of course, are waiting 24 years for an adequate building.
