Arguably best-known for her role as Linda Walsh on The Young Offenders, Demi Isaac moved into the radio world earlier this year when she joined 2FM as part of the expressions of interest recruitment process.

Paired with co-host Mikey Reilly, they took over the 12-3pm weekend slot and, since October, have been filling in for Doireann Garrihy on Drive.
