A brand new Irish show to give out about... and 4 other weekend TV highlights

We’ve got some telly for you, no matter what you’re feeling.

WELL, WE MADE it.  We’ve done a full week back in work, and lived to tell the tale.

There is no doubt though that this weekend will require a lot of down time during which you can take it easy and give your brain a bit of a rest.

Fortunately we’re here to give you some suggestions as to what to enjoy on the telly.

If want something to give out about… Things We Love and Hate (Fri, TV3, 22:00)

It doesn’t really matter how good this new Irish show is, because as a nation, we love giving out about Irish made programming.

This series seed BBC culture guy Andrew Graham-Dixon and chef Giorgio Locatelli exploring Italy along with its history, culture, food and art.

However, this week there’s an Irish element too as Swords lads Kodaline feature as the musical guest.

The weather has been pretty bleak, but things could be worse.
