Broadcaster Mary Kennedy charts her life and career through the prism of five songs ranging from ‘Frankie and Johnny’ to ‘Don’t Rain On My Parade” to her nephew, Dermot Kennedy’s, ‘Funeral’. She talks about her parents’ party pieces, the sudden death of her father, moving from teaching to broadcasting, finding confidence in later life, her faith, her friendships, her love for her seven grandchildren and choosing to have a very active retirement.
