Sir, The televised tribute to Nobel Laureate, Seamus Heaney, at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham was royal indeed. Graced by the presence of the central figure and introduced by the wise old owl, Robert Kee, nodding approval. The Laurus nobilis is long overdue for one of the producers of the programme, Michael Garvey. Yours, etc., Orwell Road, Rathgar, Dublin 6.
