Jeremy on Ireland’s TG4 this Fall

Jeremy will appear on the TG4 programme “Faoi lán Cheoil “

Eight celebrities embark on a journey to learn a musical instrument over a period of 6 months under expert tuition of a renowned musician and each programme charts their trials and triumphs.  If necessary the tutors travel with their charges, including to a New Mexico film set, a Manhattan theatre and an English Premier Leagues soccer training ground to ensure they don’t forget to practice and improve ! The celebrity students also must prepare for a public performance which is particularly special to them. The line-up of aspiring fleadh winners is:

Sunderland and Republic of Ireland international soccer player Andy Reid – Banjo,

Award-winning Belfast playwright Marie Jones – Accordion,

RTÉ Radio Presenter (and Fáilte Towers winner) John Creedon – Flute,

Oscar winning film actor (and West Cork resident) Jeremy Irons – Fiddle,

Stage, film tv actor (Ros na Rún) Macdara Ó Fátharta – tin whistle,

IFTA nominated actor/comedian Paddy Courtney – Bodhrán,

Film, Stage and TV actor and director Adrian Dunbar – Traditional Singing,
