C.U. Burn ~ Part 1 of 3

C.U. Burn is an Irish language television comedy broadcast on the Irish language television channel TG4. It told the tales of the County Donegal undertakers Charlie and Vincie Burn who ran a turf-fueled crematorium. They were rivalled by another group of more professional undertakers led by Frank Doyle. The show revolved around the hapless Charlie Burn (the C.U. Burn of the title) whose misendeavours often led to much chaos while his long-suffering brother Vincie Burn requested a quiet life. C.U. Burn was written and directed by Niall Mac Eamharcaigh[1] and was first broadcast in 1996. The series was filmed entirely in the Donegal Gaeltacht area and was one of the first home-produced TV series to be broadcast on the fledgling TG4.
