Description

James Boyce and his grand-daughter, Myrtle Mehaffey sit down to the latest in continental cuisine with a Greek dinner. James espouses the delights of this lovely food which was being slowly introduced to Northern Ireland as package holidays became more popular. We especially love his description of moussaka as “transcendental shepherd’s pie”. 

Sadly, we believe this might be one of James’s last broadcasts as he passed away not long after. He was a wonderful, eccentric and well-informed broadcaster who added so much to UTV and BBC television at the time.
