This is UTTERLY EXTRAORDINARY. In almost every conceivable way it is extraordinary. What particularly moves me is the literary quality of the narration. Have you heard such well-written words on any TV programme in the past quarter century? It almost sounds like it was written by Seamus Heaney. Just think of how far we've fallen. And to think people were living like this just a few years ago. Amazing.

I remember seeing these programmes on the TV when I was a kid. They were contemporary then. I didn't much enjoy them thinking them boring. I rediscovered them in my 30s on the Irish national broadcaster RTÉ who were rerunning them over 10 years ago. I saw then what a wonder they are and the quality I had the maturity to appreciate. So great I can rewatch them now at nearly 50 on KZbin. So cool!

The more I watch videos such as these, the more I learn about & appreciate our heritage. As a much younger person, at the time these programmes were broadcast, I was more interested in pursuing my social ventures and interests rather than absorbing these beautifully crafted documentaries of our country and life. My formative years were a mix of city, town and rural and I have memories of farmsteads and lifestyles such as those documented here. Much of the rural land l roamed, explored and played in my childhood is now sprawling estates, supermarkets and other urban features of modern living; no longer a sleepy village. Such is progress - alas.

Water came from a pump in the garden, light was from Tilley lamps downstairs and oil lamps in the bedrooms. Cooking was done on the range, which she lit every morning at 0600. Down the road Uncle David made butter exactly like that, and could make anything from wood. He made me a tiny wooden wheelbarrow when I was probably 5-6 years old.

This series is absolutely fabulous! My grandfather was from Dunndorn, Doneghal, and my grandmother from Glennfinn, Doneghal. My grandfather had this 78 record they play near the end, the song is called, The Lassie from Doneghal.
