The Sunday Show with Ed Finn — From Kilkenny

This week, we’re back in the heart of Ireland’s medieval mile as The Sunday Show continues its special visit to Kilkenny.  First, we head to the award-winning Nore Valley Park, where I’m joined by Gareth Alcorn — Farmer, and the Chairman of Kilkenny Tourism, We take a look at life on the land, from llamas and farm life to why this hidden gem has become one of Kilkenny’s most loved visitor experiences.

Then, we step inside over 701 years of history at the legendary Kyteler’s Inn, where JD Flynn shares the fascinating — and slightly chilling — story of Alice Kyteler, Ireland’s most famous witch. Expect tales of medieval Kilkenny, mystery, and a pub that’s as full of atmosphere as it is history.  It’s a show that blends the best of Kilkenny — from fresh country air to fireside folklore.

         Llamas, legends and a little bit of witchcraft — don’t miss it.    www.visitkilkenny.ie
