Derry Girls star Siobhán McSweeney says her dream dining experience involves a range of classic Cork treats, including Barry’s tea, her mam’s soda bread and butter bought from the Bandon Co-Op.

McSweeney is the latest guest on the UK-based  Off Menu podcast with Ed Gamble and James Acaster and took the hosts through her ideal menu, from simple starter to the perfect cuppa. She also explains why her dream dinner can only be found in a retirement home in West Cork.
