EXCELLENT ENTERTAINMENT
We’re used to seeing Ms Kennedy pitch up at someone’s door for a stay – but the tables have turned in Lodging With Lucy, starting September 28th, which sees her become the hostess with the mostess! The fresh and fantastic First Love involves former flames reuniting after years apart, while OAP B&B forms new – and unlikely – pairings between young and old in the most radical house-share show you’ve ever seen! Throw in the watch-it-alls of Gogglebox Ireland breaking down what’s on screen every Wednesday at 9pm on Virgin Media One, and that’s a lot of evenings’ entertainment taken care of!
RADICAL REALITY
Looking for love, singing for stardom, battling the elements and rowing for their lives – there’s a whole lot going on in the coming months when it comes to reality TV!

Now that’s what we call a busy schedule!
FABULOUS FACTUAL
The upcoming season of factual programming will touch on every part of Irish life – from the youngsters of Big Year In Big School, airing Sundays on Virgin Media One, to a look back at the life of the late, and legendary football icon in Being Jack Charlton. There’s a fly-on-the-wall look Inside Ireland’s Women’s Prison, which promises the same type of compelling storytelling and revealing insights that made The Guards: Inside The K such a hit, while Zara King tells the story of a once-in-a-lifetime year in Life Under Lockdown: Covid-19 In Ireland.
