Colette Ryan (nee Maher) from Fermoy finally got to meet Martin Rowe in the flesh on the Late Late Show last Friday night.
44 years ago, Colette went missing as a child in Butlin’s Holiday Camp in Mosney.
She was gone fro 19 hours and it was Martin Rowe, who was on his honeymoon at the time, that found the little 2 year old girl asleep in the long grass just a few yards away from a railway track, miles from the camp.
