A record number of viewers tuned in to watch 'Rip Off Republic' on Monday 15 August on RTÉ One.
Hosted by personal finance expert Eddie Hobbs, the show attracted over 667,000 viewers which corresponds to a share of 51.5% of all those watching television at that time.
The first programme in the series had already drawn a huge audience of over half a million viewers and the latest programme jumped by one third.
On Monday's show, Eddie took a look at 'rip-off's' in the area of entertainment. Part three will be transmitted on 29 August at 9.30pm on RTÉ One and will take a close look at the area of transport.
The series is filmed in front of a live audience at the Helix in Dublin City University.
Its presenter Eddie Hobbs achieved success last year with his 'Show me the Money' series which helped people to overcome personal debt.
