Antoinette Smith - Part 1

On the 11th of July, 1987, 27-year-old Antoinette Smith went to see David Bowie in concert at Slane Castle and never came home. Antoinette was a full-time mother of two, so the rare night out was extra exciting. Antoinette kissed her daughters goodbye on that sunny July day, not knowing she would never see them again. Her body was found nine months later in tragic and horrifying circumstances. In Part One of our series on the murder of Antoinette Smith, we meet the real woman behind the headlines - her life, her beloved daughters, her last day on earth and the beginnings of a murder investigation that has remained unsolved for nearly 40 years.

URC Grand Final special with Jake White and Bernard Jackman

Neil Treacy and Bernard Jackman are joined by a special guest this week, as former South Africa and Bulls head coach Jake White helps us look ahead to the BKT United Rugby Championship Grand Final between Leinster and the Bulls. White, who brought the Bulls to three URC finals during his time in charge (22:00), explains why Leinster remain the "benchmark" for others to follow in the URC, and why the South Africans are better equipped to get the better of Leo Cullen's side in Friday's final at Croke Park (12:15). The ex-Springboks coach gives us the South African perspective on where this week's final will be won and lost, with a big focus on the scrum (30:35) and the first quarter. And we also get White thoughts on some of the changing trends in rugby (04:00), as well as putting some listener questions for the World Cup winner (50:30).
