Sir, - I find it typical of the short memories that everyone seems to have nowadays that, in all the pages of newsprint and hours of radio and TV coverage of Gay Byrne's departure from the Late Late Show there was not a single mention of the man who devised that show and was its original producer: the former Head of Light Entertainment in RTE, the late Tom McGrath. - Yours, etc., Carolyn Swift.
