TWEETS: There was a lot of love for Glenroe following last night’s brilliant special on RTÉ

A trip down memory lane.

One of the TV highlights of Christmas was on RTE last night as Well Holy God It's Glenroe brought Irish people of a certain vintage right back to a simpler time. Glenroe was one of the biggest shows in the country for well over a decade with one million viewers on a Sunday night at its peak. The special last night looked back on how the show worked and why it was so successful as well as looking at some of the biggest storylines down through the years.
