The RTÉ Board acknowledges that it should have asked more questions about Toy Show: The Musical and it is a “source of regret for each member,” chairwoman Siún Ní Raghallaigh is set to tell politicians.

Appearing before the Oireachtas media committee on Wednesday, she is expected to tell politicians that the commercial risks associated with the musical of this nature were “grossly underestimated”.
