Tolka Row

Tolka Row is an Irish soap opera set in a fictional housing estate on the northside of Dublin. Based on Maura Laverty's play of the same name, Tolka Row was first broadcast on 3 January 1964 and aired weekly for five series until it ended on 31 May 1968. As Telefís Éireann's first venture into soap operas, Tolka Row quickly became a staple of the new television station's schedule and set the pace for all future home-produced serials. Its popularity also resulted in the station developing a second soap opera, The Riordans, in 1965. Tolka Row is similar in format to the long-running British soap Coronation Street, from which it borrows its main premise. The show was centred around the Nolans, a typical working-class Dublin family, and their neighbours, the Feeneys. All episodes were filmed in studio at Telefís Éireann's Television Centre in Donnybrook, Dublin.Bertie

Nationwide
2019
Nationwide is an Irish television programme broadcast on RTÉ One every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evening at 19:00, around 35 minutes long. It is currently presented by Anne Cassin and Mary Kennedy. The programme focuses on human interest stories and cultural events across the island of Ireland, generally but not solely outside of Dublin. The show is produced by RTÉ Cork. It, along with Capital D, a programme featuring Dublin, serves a similar purpose to the occasional RTÉ attempts to regionalise news and human interest content in the past, albeit without the increased technology and transmission costs, which would likely require total re-engineering of the country's transmission and cable television networks. Nationwide itself was the sole programme regionalised in recent times, but this has now ceased. Nationwide is the brainchild of Michael Ryan. On 20 December 2011, Anne Cassin was announced as Michael Ryan's replacement as presenter following his retirement.The Big Money Game

Bull Island

Bull Island was an Irish television and radio satirical comedy show broadcast on RTÉ One and later on RTÉ Radio 1 from 1999 until 2001. Featuring a cast of seven Irish comedians and impressionists, the show, which aired for half an hour weekly, satirised many aspects of Irish life. Bull Island was created by RTÉ Producer/Director John Keogh who brought Michael Sheridan, Alan Shortt & Gary Flood together to devise & co-create the format. Some of the notable women in power at the time, such as the then Cabinet Minister, Mary O'Rourke, and the Taoiseach Bertie Ahern's partner Celia Larkin were played by a man, and there were regular depictions of deception and skulduggery in the Dáil bar. The opposition were usually portrayed as bumbling incompetents. Other sketches included a regular pastiche of Paddy O'Gorman and his shows which consist of interviewing people at random - Bull Island's Paddy O'Gormless would do similar, but with ever more inane interviews.
