South Armagh man Proinsias Ó Coinn has found himself in holiday mode in a new role for a TG4 travel series starting tomorrow 13 April.
Ó Coinn co-presents the programme along with Louise Cantillon from Co. Limerick and Séaghan Ó Súilleabháin from County Kerry.
Ó Coinn is a podcaster, journalist and passionate world traveller. He makes radio documentaries for the BBC and has appeared on television programmes on TG4 and the BBC. Proinsias generally likes to travel solo so how difficult could it be for him to travel with the other two? Well no doubt if you tune in you will soon find out!
The seven part series Téacs Taistil is the brainchild of award-winning Film and TV production company Macalla and it transports us from our couches to a different destination each week. For an inspirational, fun and entertaining 50-minute escape. It's a fast-paced travel series and a captivating way to experience the world.
Three presenters, Three days, three tasks. A different short break every week. What to pack? How to dress? Where are we going?
They will have 48 hours to answer all these questions and only a cryptic text messages to guide them.
Cantillon is a Radio DJ on Today FM and also presents TG4’s Junior Eurovision. She loves travel, sport, fashion and music and documents her many adventures on Instagram. She is intelligent, witty, very charming and always game for a laugh!
Farmer, teacher and presenter @thekerrycowboy, Séaghan Ó Súilleabháin, has many strings to his bow. Séaghan is very active on Tiktok and Instagram where his life on the farm in Kerry has attracted worldwide attention. Ó Súilleabháin has travelled very little so far, how will he fare on Téacs Taistil?
To say these three have very little in common would be an understatement.
Except that they are all seasoned travellers ... well 2 are, the other went on one school trip when he was sixteen.
Téacs Taistil begins on TG4 on Thursday April 13th at 9:30pm and continues at the same time for 7 weeks.
