You hear people saying things about people who have achieved much in their field, and you always hope it’ll be true. Many people will tell you how lovely a man Seamus Heaney is, and that’s exactly what we was. A gentleman and very giving of his time.
He arrived at Linenhall Library where we filmed him in one of the rooms, and the photo shows Glenn Patterson, who has been conducting the interviews for all of our writers, deep in chat with Seamus.
As we get each of the interviews in the bag it only makes us feel more excited about what we’re doing .. this is actually history that we’re recording, and we have to say thank you to all the writers for giving their time to the project.
