On Friday 17th February RTÉ Television is launching its call for people everywhere, in Ireland and worldwide, to tell us #HowToBeIrish.
The programme will be made entirely of clips sent in by viewers talking about, or otherwise illustrating, what being Irish means to them.
RTÉ will select the funniest, most touching, awe-inspiring and strange responses for the television programme, #HowToBeIrish, which will be broadcast on RTÉ One and on RTÉ.ie on St Patrick’s Day 2012. And we’ll share the best of the rest with our RTÉ.ie visitors.
There are many ways of being Irish and the conversation is open to anyone anywhere who would like to send us their thoughts on being Irish. Whatever #HowToBeIrish means to you, we want you to show us on camera.
The show will be hosted by Twitter extraordinaire Rick O’Shea of RTÉ 2fm (linked to#HowToBeIrish), helped by model and Facebook maven Faye Dinsmore and RTÉ Television presenter and You Tube star, Stephen Byrne.
Closing date for submission of material is 6pm on Monday 5th March.
