COCO Television would like to hear from families who are interested in letting their teenage children plan their summer holiday. The holiday location will be wherever the kids choose! The cost of flights and accommodation will be covered by the production and the holiday will be filmed for the show. If you think your kids can organise your dream family holiday, please call COCO Television on 01 497 0817.

Teens planning your summer holiers? What could possibly go wrong?

COMEDY DUO The Rubberbandits have taken a big step towards UK success after Channel 4 ordered a 30-minute broadcast pilot off the back of their online music videos.
Shot in Limerick, it will be the first Irish-made sitcom for the channel since Father Ted .

The hip-hop comedians – Blind Boy Boat Club, or Boatboy, and Mr Chrome – are the first graduates from C4’s Comedy Blaps grassroots initiative, after three short videos posted on Channel 4’s website attracted more than 1.4 million views between them.

Made by Dublin production company Sideline and directed by Declan Lowney, who worked on Father Ted and Little Britain , the same team is making the pilot, which airs later this year.
