One thing puzzles me: the press release says this series originally aired in spring 2021 surely they must mean 1971.ĭáithí Ó Sé, Sinéad Kennedy and Maura Derrane on the set of TodayĪnna Richardson and her team of money-saving experts are back with a second run of this thrifty series, in which families try to splash less unnecessary cash and save it for something really special. There will also be interviews with Chris de Burgh, a big pop singer at the time, and a fella named Dermot Bannon, who apparently was a big name in home improvement. RTÉ will trawl through the archives of this telly relic to pull out entertaining highlights from season nine of the show (yes, it ran and ran!), including tips on how to wear colour and how to make a birdbox. Apparently, Today was one of the most popular shows – almost as big as Calor Kosangas Housewife of the Year – and featured affable hosts Dáithí Ó Sé, Maura Derrane and Sinéad Kennedy beaming into the cottages and shebeens of Ireland back in the days of single-channel TV. In a special week of nostalgia, RTÉ looks back at the quaint old daytime TV shows of the past, with their recipes, make-up and hair advice, and cosy afternoon banter.
