Caoimhe Ní Chathail

Tá boinn oilimpeacha bainte ag Paddy Barnes san fháinne dornálaíochta ach cad é mar atá a chuid scileanna teanga agus é ag iarraidh a dhul do scrúdú fáinne airgid? Cluinimid ó Paddy é féin agus ón stiúrthóir/léiritheoir teilifíse Sian Nic An Bheatha faoi ‘Fir Fáinne’, clár faisnéise úr a eanann turas Paddy. Comh maith leis sin, agus Lá Idirnáisúnta na Leabhar linn, buaileann Róise Ní Bhaoill isteach sa stiúideo le hinsint dúinn faoin tábhacht a bhainneann leis an leabhar, ‘Our Tangled Speech’, sula seoltar ag deireadh na seachtaine é. Agus faigheann muid blaisín den stíl a bhí le feiceáil sa Millennium Forum i nDoire le déanaí mar chuid den chomórtas faisin, ‘Junk Kouture’.

Paddy Barnes has triumphed in the Olympic boxing ring, but there’s one ring he has yet to conquer: the Fáinne Airgid. We hear from Paddy himself and TV director/producer Sian Nic An Bheatha about a new programme which follows Paddy’s journey as sets his sights on adding the Fáinne Arigid to his medal collection. As part of World Book Day, Róise Ní Bhaoill chats to Caoimhe about ‘Our Tangled Speech’ by Aodhán Mac Póilin which is to be launched this weekend and explains the importance of the book for the younger generation. Also, we hear about some of the style at this year’s ‘Junk Kouture’ fashion competition in the Millennium Forum in Derry.
