The first episode of Gogglebox Ireland was as informative as it was entertaining, with retired pals Eileen and Angela kindly informing us that "18 times that bell rings" just before Six-One.

Ashley, meanwhile, suggested that the game needs a Superbowl-style half-time show. Unconfirmed reports at this time state that Drake has been lined up for GAA Headquarters in September 2017.
This is how the first episode played out on Twitter...
