Yep I watched it. Brill to see them cover it. I noticed their main feed was direct from RTÉ. The commentary was a little better. A few sound problems from the studio, but Ray Kennedy was coming in pretty clear. Didn't see any coveragedfrom the BBC, something on BBC World would have been fitting. Amazing to see Sky recognising the importance of our *independance day*. Well done, makes me feel all proud! Smile Smile

I think it was actually a Eurovision feed - I got a little confused when the feed we had on in the background of the Easter service from the Vatican had changed to O'Connell Street.
