Don't see the appeal of these kind of programmes.Why would anyone other than the people appearing in it themselves or their friends/family be bothered watching?

Watched a bit of this on Sunday, some of them didn't seem that fit tbh.

Granted I didn't see it all

I followed this last year and enjoyed it, last night's episode was joyless the course was horrendous, felt sorry for all the families, the lucky ones were the families that were eliminated last week.
A good idea for a family TV show butchered.

Some of the families seem slightly "unhinged" IMHO

Mairead Farrell is fit

Mairead? What about Anna Geary?.....she is stunning.

Tough exercise last night with the 4 lads and the race through mud.

Expunge

It's the most cliched pile of poo I have seen.
The coaches - Davy, Quinlan and the camogie lady just kept saying, in various ways, I want to win, I hate to loose etc.

Only Jayo came across to me as not being an automaton for winning at all costs.

Sunday evening entertainment on RTE, Jaysus wept.

There's something odd about all the families......

True but the only trouble is she also thinks so herself.She probably reads this thread to see how many people say how fine she is.An ego the size of Mount Everest.

Quite enjoying this. The "mentor" format is old and tired and not adding anything, but the competition element is really keeping my interest.

Tough break for the Davorens in that race. Although they looked like they were being overtaken.

I loved watching those O'Brien Devine boys run - they had the most amazing stride!

Boots234

Brilliant finish to win the last race, I thought the O'Brien Devines had lost it

_Brian

Thought it was good TV.
Can't say I Enjoy any reality type stuff on TV but enjoyed this.
Well done to RTE on this.

They were being overtaken, but jaysus, after 3 appearances maybe this show just isn't for them.

The show itself has become as bad as the X-factor for all the non competition stuff in between, you can literally watch all the events within 15 minutes if you record it and fast forward through all the talkie bits.

I really thought they'd do it this time.

Bad move tactically (in hindsight, obviously!) to have the girl in front behind the bar - she's obviously going to be the slowest/weakest and what happened to Nicole is the result of falling out of line with her brother. But then, it didn't happen to the other family who had the female in front (can't remember which ones it was) so what do I know!

Loved the show each time, but yes the amount of waffle is most annoying.

Wonder will the Farrens do a Davorens, and reappear next time (assuming there is a next time)? The Dad certainly wasn't ruling it out!

I was up for the Farrens or the Davorens. I can't stand people with double barrelled names

smunchkins

Fair play to the O'Brien Devines. They were a great family to watch and seemed really surprised and pleased to be the winners. Oh, and they didn't have double barrelled names, mum was O'Brien, the boys were Devines and I thought the programme did a great job of including both to make things equal.

_Tombstone_

Great final, I picked the winners two weeks ago!

The Davern girl was lucky not to get hurt, I was surprised no one seen the danger running in front of that thing + yea they weren't gonna qualify in that round.

Great show! Going to miss it

Agree.
Mum and dad have separated so the mother has gone back to her maiden name of O Brien....only double barrelled for the TV show.

somesoldiers

Is back this Sunday at 6.30 on RTE1.

Wonder will the Daverns be in it again?

HeidiHeidi

Anyone watching this series?

Can't figure out if it's new or not - lots of the teams look really familiar, but it's on in the prime-time usual slot, where I wouldn't expect a repeat to be shown

Ah c'mon, it's RTE

:D

It's definitely a repeat - I saw an advert last week looking for families for this year's new one so it will be a while off yet I'd say.

New Series will be shot May - August 2017

If Mairead is pregnant in it it's a repeat, also they show it 1830 on Sunday evenings usually anything else is a repeat

Have to say i admire them for doing that.

They still had 2 males vs the other family's 2 females.
