Siobhan and Anne weren't the only local children playing at Eamon Cooke's house.

Then one day he came down.

I think there was about six of us in the garden.

Now, there was girls and boys.

And he asked us would we like to be on, uh, the television? We said, "How?" So he got a cine camera, and he was recording us, asking us to run up and down the pathway.

And then a group of us got in a line, and he said, like, "Kick your legs as if you're doing the Can-Can." And we thought it was really funny, and we thought it was great.

And he said, "I'll show you on the television someday."

But for children like Siobhan, the whole situation was really confusing.
