In its 10th year, the final, 17th series was broadcast on BBC Radio Ulster from Saturday 8 October[3] until 12 November 2011, the day before writer and voice-over star Sean Crummey died.[4] The show was a light-hearted, comic parody of the prominent figures of Northern Irish politics, and occasionally other politicians including Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, Bertie Ahern and George W. Bush. The term 'folks on the hill' refers to the Northern Irish parliament and government at Stormont Hill. The programme was written by Belfast impressionist, Sean Crummey, animated by Liam O'Neill[1] (later Ciaran Boyle) and produced by Owen McFadden.[1] The music was by Paul Rocks. Female voice impersonations were by Kathy Clugston, who provided the voices for Anne Robinson, Iris Robinson, Camilla, the Queen, Bairbre de Brun and many others.[3] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2006/01_january/19/comedy_folks.shtml|title=That's not all folks ...|last=|first=|coauthors=|date=19 January 2006|work=|publisher=BBC}} [1][2][3]2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-15214875|title=Sean Crummey reflects on a decade of colourful characters|last=|first=|coauthors=|date=7 October 2011 |work=|publisher=BBC News}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.newsletter.co.uk/news/local/emotional-farewell-to-the-voice-of-folks-on-the-hill-1-3253973|title=Emotional farewell to the voice of Folks on the Hill |last=|first=|coauthors=|date=17 November 2011|work=|publisher=Belfast Newsletter, Johnston Publishing Ltd}} }} External links
