It’s on again tonight.
The Rose of Tralee got underway last night as Dáithí Ó Sé met the first batch of ladies hoping to win the crown this year.
As always with the show, Twitter had a bit of a field day.
That was the best episode of Fr Ted ever….

If rose of Tralee was for lads my talent'd be eating a chicken fillet roll dead fast and necking a can of fanta, as Gaeilge #roseoftralee

Despite all those very witty and funny remarks, everyone was still watching the damn thing, unless you’re a Liverpool or Bournemouth fan that is.
Irish comedian Ross Browne, who you’ll know from Republic of Telly, has done a sketch that illustrates how a specific part of that big audience watches the Rose of Tralee – Irish girls.
See if you recognise your missus, sister or friend here.
Every Irish woman watching Rose of Tralee
