The moving statue in Ballinspittle - 40 years on

Forty years ago today a 17-year-old local girl, Claire O’Mahony, saw the statue of Our Lady, in the grotto just outside Ballinspittle at Sheehy’s Cross, move. This incident began a sequence of events that saw thousands of people visit the town, widespread media coverage both at home and abroad and at least 30 other similar sightings elsewhere in the country. Colette Sheridan is a Freelance Journalist who reported on the event at the time and has been writing about it in the Irish Times. She joins Seán to look back on this time.
