| WITH REBECCA STORM |
Gleeson read from the Visitors Book, heartfelt comments from family members of Hospice patients.The comedian Mario Rosenstock did a skit making fun of Michael Flately, would have preferred a few impersonations, which he is famous for.. But as they say it was for charity! Popular showband star, Paddy Cole rounded off the show with a few tunes on his Sax and a few old time numbers to keep the veteran audience swaying.. The show finished with a raffle for star prizes and the whole show was seamlessly held together by RTE veteran presenter and Eurovision compere Marty Whelan... A great night was had by all and for a good cause! Look forward to the next show!
