The final episode in the current series of Laochra Gael airs this Sunday.

It will profile one of the country's great GAA families - the Meehans from Caltra in Galway.

Two of the brothers, Tomas and Declan, won All-Ireland football medals in 1998 and 2001. Three years after that All-Ireland inter-county title would come one with their club Caltra.

On St. Patrick's Day 2004, Caltra beat An Gaeltacht to win the All-Ireland club football title. On that day, the Meehans scored 12 of Caltra's 13-point total.

Noel, who captained the side scored six, while Michael got five. In all, six Meehan brothers were involved on that day.

The show airs at 5.55pm on TG4 on Sunday, April 24th.
