Red Rock is all set for a showdown

THE jungle drums continue to beat about TV3’s Garda soap opera Red Rock. 

HE jungle drums continue to beat about TV3’s Garda soap opera Red Rock. It picked up a clutch of awards at this year’s IFTAs and, in November, Amazon Prime announced it was bringing the series to American viewers. It’s pacey. It’s got flinty dialogue and, refreshingly for Irish audiences it has an Irish setting, slang and scandalous storylines.

“A lot of its stories tend to revolve around the garda station,” says Patrick Ryan, who plays troubled garda Paudge Brennan.
