Ireland television schedule for Monday 25 December 1978.
Normally, I only have access to Sunday Irish schedules. My source is the London newspaper "The Observer", as viewed on the newspapers.com website. However, one of the Sundays in December 1978 fell on the 24th. Since no newspaper was published on Christmas day, the Observer for the 24th features the next day's TV schedule....a Monday.
Re: "Boney M. in Concert", I have a videotaped Boney M. concert on DVD, perhaps that is the show on the schedule? The one I viewed is a good concert. It is well known (and was never really a secret) that two of the members of Boney M. didn't perform on the records, but nevertheless all four members sang at the concerts. An interesting situation to say the least.
