THIS WEEK, I’M WATCHING...

Gogglebox

Wednesday, Virgin Media One, 9pm Welcome back to the Cabra girls, John and Dave, the Gruffertys, Tadhg and his granny Ettie, and all the other Goggleboxers who make Wednesday the funniest night on TV.

Cheap Irish Homes

RTÉ One, Thursday, 7pm The ever amiable Maggie Molloy, left, and building engineer Kieran McCarthy return to help would-be buyers find new homes. Often, this means bringing derelict properties back to life. We need more of that.

The Late Late Show Friday, RTÉ One, 9.35pm Yes, it’s that time of year again, as Ryan Tubridy returns to our television screens.

The full two-hour slot is back too, after much of the last series was weirdly capped at 90 minutes.
