You need to see Doireann Garrihy's spot on impression of Dáithí O'Shea
Last night, RTÉ premiered The Doireann Project on its online player
A 9-minute sketch show starring Radio presenter and Snapchat star, Doireann Garrihy.
The 25-year-old, who is known for her spot-on impressions of some well-known Irish faces, shared sneak peeks of the pilot on her social media leading up to the show, including one of her dressed as a Gardaí in front of a green screen.
And from Inertia - her impression of Saoirse Ronan - to the ‘Mammy at the school gates’, it’s safe to say it didn’t disappoint.
@DoireannGarrihy doing Saoirse Ronan is the best thing ever. #TheDoireannProject

@rte @RTEplayer #TheDoireannProject can't be just a once off episode! Would love to see where @DoireannGarrihy takes this with a full series. Well done Ms. Garrihy!

So @DoireannGarrihy’s show is absolutely GAS. I mean, I adore her so I was prepared to like it anyway but it superseded expectations. Excellent writing @fionalooney and BRAVO DZOIREANN!!!! #TheDoireannProject

She also hilarious took on Dr. Eva and the hosts of the Today Show, Dáithí and Maura.
Which has been widely acclaimed as one of the best Dáithí impressions yet.

Viewers only complaint is that it wasn’t longer.
My only complaint is I wanted it to be longer! Loved the Mom at the gates and of course Daithí #TheDoireannProject @DoireannGarrihy
