VIDEO: Bulmers Forbidden Fruit has a lot to do to live up to the greatest Irish festival in history

This is a joy

Father Ted, eat your heart out.

Let’s revisit one of the best videos to have ever made the hallowed pages of JOE.ie

Filmed in May 2015 in Sligo Folk Park, the Riverstown Annual Vintage Day was like a cross between Ted and D’Unbelievables.

It was based on the Titanic, and it’s fair to say the weather reflected the theme perfectly.

This is worth watching for the wonderful commentary from the gentleman in the high visibility jacket alone, as he runs through the spot prizes to an audience that turned out in their tens for the big day.

Wait ’til you catch what the big prize is…
