Grab the popcorn and settle in for a barrel of laughs as one of our favourite home grown comedies, The Snapper (1993) returns to RTÉ!
A whopping 24 years on from when we first met 20 year old Sharon Curley and her densely populated family from the fictional region of Barrytown in Dublin, The Snapper remains a firm favourite among Irish audiences with quotes from the movie infiltrating our colloquialisms more often than not…
On RTÉ tonight at 9.35pm or on-demand for up to seven days on the RTÉ Player
Meanwhile…
The slightly misleading US poster for The Snapper.

That poster….. was that really the one distributed? It is literally nothing like the film!
Two thumbs up – Georgie Burgess.
Have ye checked out Roddy Doyle’s Star Trek? https://www.facebook.com/Roddy-Doyles-Star-Trek-669740766565298/
you beat me to it Spaghetti…. great stuff
Kay Curley gave her an awful clatter.
“Who’s she having it for?”
“She won’t say!”
“She doesn’t know!!!”
One of the most quotable movies of all time.
I used to go out with a girl called Sharon. “A1, Sharon” was my everytime, post-coital utterance. She didn’t like that.
This explains much.
Where did it all go wrong, Mildred?
I suppose it was when you kept calling me Sharon…
Fair enough, sorry.
(But when I said A1, I meant it. Just so you know)
I appreciate that. Pints later then?
Can the Sheik come?
Of course he can! More the merrier!
You didn’t show up, Mildred.
4 hours
7 pints
1 broken heart
What?!? I’ve only just finished ironing me best burnous… it’s off then :-(
Get your clean drawers on, Sheiky
Was that why she’d reply “E minus”? Or some other reason?
“in between a D2 and a D3” is what she’d usually say, actually
Sassy!
Tonight, and every night. But enough about my problems, how’re YOU doin’ ?
The youngfella directly under the budgie cage, whatever happened to him I wonder, he used to be in loads of stuff, was a very decent actor I thought.
He was. Jesus the scene where he’s home from the Leb and the family are playing Yellow Ribbon cracks me up each time. He’s a typical Dublin young fella of the time.
His name is Enda Williams and is now a solicitor/lawyer type guy. i see him every now and again at music nights. nice chap….
Cheers Joxer :)
