From St Gabriel's Retreat, the Graan, Enniskillen. Led by Father Brian D'Arcy. The Graan has been part of Brian D'Arcy's life for over 60 years. He went there as boy, was a Passionist novice there in the 1960s and has spent more than 25 years as its Superior. As he prepares to move on, he reflects on his priesthood: what his basic values are, his experiences in the world of broadcasting and show business; ministry during the troubles and his determination to be a loyal critic of the Church. He is joined by his good friend, the singer Daniel O'Donnell.
