A pensioner whose husband died when she was just 22 has gone on her first ever date since the accident — 66 years later.

Georgina Clarke (88), who will appear in a Saint Valentine’s Day special of RTÉ’s First Dates, said her husband Seamus was just 26 when he was killed in a road accident on the Long Mile Road in Dublin.
