Description

Charles Witherspoon meets Mr Robert Nicholl, the ‘Memory Man’ from Leckpatrick near Strabane, who can tell what day any date fell on. Charlie puts Mr Nicholl to the test and asks him how he came to have this remarkable gift. It’s a pity Charlie’s memory on what he planned to ask wasn’t as good!
