“It’s the biggest thing to happen to Irish Dancing since Riverdance“ | Feis fixing scandal explained

Journalist Ellen Coyne joins Muireann and Tommy to discuss the Feis Fixing Scandal. Ellen Coyne explains how she broke the story, telling Muireann and Tommy that: “Around 10 o’clock at night I got this weird email from an anonymous account.“ “We learned and reported that An Coimisiún Le Rincí Gaelacha (CLRG) had been handed these files in July which appeared to show a systemic cheating problem.“ Former professional Irish dancer, Louise Hayden, tells them that there is a lot of anger in the Irish dancing community. “So many people are scared to say things too loudly in case they have any fallback for it.“ Two senior members of the CLRG have since resigned following the global scandal over alleged cheating. - Monday-Friday from to & weekends from to 12:00pm on Virgin Media One.
