Morning time in Dublin suburbs and city centre.

It is a summer morning and a milkman from Hughes Brothers dairy is on his rounds in Foxrock, County Dublin.

In contrast to the quiet suburban roads the city centre is bustling. People have breakfast in a Dawson Street café and the shop windows of Grafton Street draw the attention of passersby.

This episode of 'Tangents' was broadcast on 24 October 1972.

The accompanying music is 'Morning Morgantown' by Joni Mitchell.

A miscellany of events, entertainment, opinions and personalities, 'Tangents' was first aired on Monday 25 September 1972 and ran until 1974.

Tangents was presented by Cathal O'Shannon and Doireann Ní Bhriain on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and by John O'Donoghue each Tuesday.
