The Culture Cafe

BBC Radio Ulster - The Culture Cafe, Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon - from Footloose to Famous Seamus

How Footloose, Seamus Heaney and Northern Irish crafters come up in conversation.

Joining Marie-Louise around the Culture Cafe table this week are Cathy Brown, the arts and literary programmer from the Seamus Heaney Homeplace, Bellaghy who puts together the calendar of events for the year. She's also a massive "Footloose" film fanatic and discusses Kevin Bacon as well as Famous Seamus! Also as part of August Craft Month and Craft NI, Ruth McEwan-Lyon from NI Silver and Helen Faulkner Ceramics join the chat, with the conversation ranging from a ghost in Helen's studio who is putting her off listening to her true crime podcasts, the NDAs Ruth signed to appear as an extra and can't tell us which shows she's been in and there's seat dancing in studio to Kenny Loggins!
