Eamonn Holmes reports for the Good Evening Ulster news programme on a remarkable venture in Armagh. There, a local priest, Father Seamus Rice, had opened a pub which sold no alcoholic drinks of any kind. The place was so successful that, after four years, he had now opened a £15,000 extension and made the place look more like a pub with soft drinks on spirit optics.

Father Rice tells Eamonn that the place is frequented by schoolchildren, adults and perhaps people wanting to stop drinking alcohol and that they also have non-Catholic customers. Eamonn asks if perhaps it is whetting the appetite of children for real pubs, but Father Rice thinks it is an alternative and the children interviewed at least claim that this is the case. The barmaid, Susan, is also interviewed and she says that the only trouble she has at closing time is trying to get Father Rice himself to leave.
