RTÉ new season line-up a blend of new and old

SCOOTING across the lawns of RTÉ yesterday, presenter Ryan Tubridy looked confident but cautious as he approached a wall of journalists.

He and the cream of the station’s talent turned out for the launch of its new season, which promises a host of new as well as established programmes.

The line-up includes a blend of comedy, a fresh approach to current affairs and a look at Ireland’s changing lifestyles as part of the station’s programmes over the coming months.
