The Bank Holiday weekend jumpstarts Halloween early. New Blood is “a four roomed vampiric rave for one night only” with a dress code that’s described as ” If Rihanna and FKA Twigs had a stripclub in the Matrix” that will feature some great new Irish live and electronic music and, a fermented shot bar and other tricks and treats . It’s part of the Bram Stoker Festival.

“It has been my privilege to lead RTÉ through a time of considerable challenge, change, upheaval and innovation – both internally and in the wider market,” he said.
“While many more challenges remain, I think the organisation is well placed to meet them. There is still a lot of work to be done before my departure in May.
“Through the considerable efforts of staff, management and independent producers the organisation is on a more stable footing.
“Most importantly, through all their combined talents, RTÉ continues to produce strong programming, continues to innovate, and has made the transition to a modern digital media organisation.”

Noel Curran confirming he will step down as director general of RTÉ in May.

This is Anne Sheerin, owner of Anne’s B&B in Tulsk Co. Roscommon, reacting to the arrival of Daniel and Majella to her home. Anne owns the B&B with her husband Noel, a retired school teacher, and is a huge Daniel fan. Anne features in the first episode of ‘Daniel and Majella’s B&B Road Trip’ – a brand new six-part series, broadcasting exclusively on UTV Ireland from next Monday at 8pm.

FIGHT!
