M\u00e1ire Aoibhinn N\u00ed \u00d3g\u00e1in from Cartlann TG4 at the launch of ‘S\u00fail Siar Scann\u00e1in Dobharch\u00fa’<\/sup><\/center><\/p>\n

Cartlann TG4 launched the showreel S\u00fail Siar ar Scann\u00e1in Dobharch\u00fa 1992 – 2022<\/strong> in Amharclann Ghaoth Dobhair on Thursday 20th August to commemorate the work of the television producer M\u00e1ir\u00edn Seoighe who passed away in 2022.
\n <\/p>\n

For almost thirty years through her production company Scann\u00e1in Dobharch\u00fa, M\u00e1ir\u00edn produced a vast range of acclaimed series and documentaries for TG4. These included the series Ceol Cois Locha, Ceol na nOile\u00e1n, Flosc, Imircigh Ban and Labhair Linn as well as individual programmes such as Frankie, Clann as Dobhair, An Swilly, Mo Honda Beag Dearg and Mo High Nelly \u00c1lainn. In addition to the showreel, the programme Clann as Dobhair about world renowned group Clannad and highlights from Ceol Cois Locha which was filmed in Ionad Cois Locha in the 1990s was shown.
\n <\/p>\n

Her life, her work and personality were reminisced upon by Miche\u00e1l \u00d3 Meallaigh – former-Commissioning Director TG4, Sally N\u00ed Dhuibhir – TV Producer, Sorcha N\u00ed Mhonach\u00e1in – Nuacht TG4\/RT\u00c9, Anna N\u00ed Bhroin – University of Galway and Donnchadh \u00d3 Baoill – \u00dadar\u00e1s na Gaeltachta. Caoimhe N\u00ed Chonchoille – RT\u00c9 Raidi\u00f3 na Gaeltachta oversaw the proceedings.

M\u00e1ire Aoibhinn N\u00ed \u00d3g\u00e1in<\/strong>, Ceannasa\u00ed Cartlainne TG4 said:
\n“M\u00e1ir\u00edn Seoighe and Scann\u00e1in Dobharch\u00fa made over 120 programmes for TG4 , music, documentary and topical chat shows. Her work gives us a great insight to contemporary Ireland over the past 30 years on issues of the day , sometimes on sensitive topics which were dealt with humanity, understanding and above all else with \u201cjoie de vivre\u201d.”<\/em>
\n <\/p>\n

M\u00edche\u00e1l \u00d3 Meallaigh<\/strong>, ex-Commissioning Director TG4 said:
\n\u201cM\u00e1ir\u00edn Seoighe was a trailblazer who came up with eclectic ideas that catered to television audiences, audiences that she understood deeply, from delightful music series recorded among her own community, documentary series that showed in particular aspects of women\u2019s lives, in Ireland and abroad, to entertaining little once off documentary gems like Mo Honda 50 and Mo High Nelly \u00c1lainn. The likes of which were not seen on any other channel. Her work greatly contributed to the S\u00fail Eile that was the goal of TnaG \/TG4 from the beginning.”<\/em>
