Bob Wellings reports from the picturesque village of Corofin in County Clare, where local inventor and resident engineering genius James Tierney has built his own submarine - the only one in all of Ireland - out of some oil barrels. Mr Tierney's stated intention is to pilot this home-made craft to the bottom of Loch Inchiquin and spend the whole night on the lake bed. There's just one problem - nobody has ever seen the vessel submerge...
Could it be that the twinkly-eyed James Tierney is having a bit of mischievous fun at the expense of the BBC and - worse still - the regulars at the local pub? Might his famous 'submarine' in fact, be nothing more than a mere boat? You decide.
This clip is from Nationwide, originally broadcast 21 August, 1978.
