TWO IRISH MEN have won prizes for producing some of the best gelato flavours in the world.
Ice cream makers Michael O’Dowd and Neil Byrne won the title of the best ferrero rocher gelato, and the best honeycomb gelato at the Sigep Rimini trade show in Italy.
They look pretty amazing in fairness.
And the flavours just get better from there.

Lovely little movie, but perhaps an example where they could have considered adding subtitles as some of the accents will be quite tough for non Irish to follow … especially if this is aimed at a foreign audience. Having lived abroad for over 7 years, quite a number of my friends (for whom English is their second if not third language) have commented on this at one time or another.
For example, it amazed me the first time i saw it, but on Belgian TV (for a Belgian audience remember), its quite common to see some shows to put in Flemish/Dutch subtitles when the person speaking has a very strong accent!
Hi Feilim,
As it happens, there is another version of Bye Bye Now which has subtitles on it for that exact reason. That version (with subtitles) will be sent to China as far as I know. The subtitled version is the one that has been so successful on the international circuit (the filmmakers have won a number of major international awards for the doc).
So good point by your good self – and one they have sorted!
Cheers, Susan
Wonderful little movie.
Poor Superman :(
Love the tshirt Ross, are ur changing rooms running out.:-)
Heartwarming and beautifully made. A touching tribute to a vanishing Ireland.
Had a few knee tremblers in them back in the day
Very good film and very poignant. I saw it recently on RTÉ and today saw a truck o. The m50 with a phone box on the back of it. Reckon people are gona start robbing the last few ones that are left.
have your say
