David McSavage - Dave's new RTE 2 show, "The Savage Eye" hits our screens in late November.
Following the success of David McSavage's pilot for the RTÉ Two comedy series Project Ha Ha earlier this year THE SAVAGE EYE returns for a full six-part run. The series is a satirical and often surreal examination of subjects close to the hearts of the Irish people such as the arts, property, sex and religion.
It takes the form of a fake anthropological documentary - as if made by British television - and features sketches performed by well known Irish actors and comedians, including David McSavage, Declan Rooney, Pat McDonnell, Eleanor Tiernan, Gerard McSorley, Liam Hourican, John Colleary and Dermot McMurrow.
RTE 2 Mondays at 10.30pm
with Magnus Betnér - Swedish comedian Magnus Betnér is the number one comic in Scandinavia. He has played many UK clubs already and this is his very first visit to Ireland (another irish debut for the laughter lounge).
Magnus is famous all over Sweden and now plans to be as successful in the UK and Ireland. Many compare him to Bill Hicks and Doug Stanhope, as a matter of fact he shared a stage with Doug in Stockholm, recently. He is a very clever comic and will get you thinking as well as laughing.
Guest MC John Colleary - Dublin-based John Colleary is a regular compere at a number of gigs in Ireland, including the Craic In The Box, in his native Sligo. He appeared in the C4 Comedy Lab pilot Headwreckers and is half of the wacky cop duo TJ & TJ (with Bernard O’Shea), who are regulars on Today FM’s Last Word.
Wednesday December 9th, 8.30pm, €12.50 / 7.50 online
