RTÉ has decided to end Claire Byrne’s Monday weekly television show after seven years on the air.

Ms Byrne, who recently spoke in an interview about possibly giving up the TV show, will continue to host her mid-morning show Today with Claire Byrne on RTÉ Radio 1. Ms Byrne will also work with RTÉ on future television programmes, the broadcaster said.
