I am pleased to share some more important news relating to Fr Doyle. In two week’s time I have the great privilege of travelling to the EWTN studios in Alabama to appear on three different programmes to discuss Fr Doyle and the imminent release of To Raise the Fallen, published by Ignatius Press in the United States later this month.

I always find that people – even if they have little or no faith or interest in religion – are amazed at his life and his heroism when they first encounter him.

Bravery Under Fire airs in the US at 10pm Eastern. In Ireland and the UK it airs at 4pm. It also airs in Australia, I think that the schedule tries to localise the time for me to Irish time, rather than Australian time.
