Irish Old Home Movies Wanted

The Irish language TV station based in the West of Ireland, TG4, needs your help!

The station is very interested in uncovering old moving picture footage of Belfast, Dublin and any other part of Ireland which has not been previously broadcast as well as footage of Irish Communities abroad.

Amateur footage is of particular interest - the older the better. Were you a keen amateur film-maker or know of any film that is waiting for its chance on the small-screen? Were you posted in the north of Ireland during WW2 and took a movie camera with you? Do you have footage of holidays in Ireland or are you of Irish heritage and have footage of family celebrations, reunions or GAA games or maybe St.Patrick's Day Parades in The USA, UK, Canada or Ireland?

Footage will be used as part of a major archive history series and the producers would especially like to hear from those whose footage show aspects of rural and city life in Ireland - transport; working life; sport; conflict; music etc.
