Barrister demands boycott over Limerick jibe on cookery show

A senior barrister in Limerick has called on people to boycott products advertised on TV3 following derogatory remarks made about his native city on Come Dine With Me by one of its celebrity guests.

Brendan Nix, 59, a barrister for over 35 years, said he “loves the programme but will never watch it again” after last week’s episodes.

In the latest celebrity version of the show, magazine publisher Michael O’Doherty makes a number of remarks about Limerick, which he has since apologised for.
