Building Ireland

Final episode of the decent sci-fi drama.

MayDay: 24 hours in Ireland’s Lockdown

RTÉ One, 9.35pm

A documentary taking in a day in the life of the nation during the current crisi. A wide range of participants includes fitness instructors, postmen, taxi drivers, hairdressers and funeral directors.

Pure Mule

RTÉ2, 10.30pm

A repeat of what is possibly the best homegrown drama we've seen this century on RTÉ Originally broadcast in 2005, the Midlands-set series felt very authentic with its portrayal of young lives in a small-town Ireland. A strong cast included Tom Murphy, Eileen Walsh and Seán McGinley. Well worth another watch.
