WARNING: The following video features some fairly salty language…

Neil Delamere has been working on a brand new show called Holding Out for a Hero and we’ve got a look at the hilarious bloopers below.

So, what’s the show all about? Well, as per the description on YouTube: “Irish history has a cast of millions of characters who inhabited the island over the centuries, but every now and then one lad or lady sticks out as truly heroic.

“From the legendary warrior Cúchulainn to the pirate queen Gráinne Mhaol, in this 4 part series, Neil wants to get inside their skin and see if he has what it takes to be a modern day Irish Hero.

“Spoiler alert: He doesn’t.”

Sounds good… apart from that spoiler. Leave something to the imagination why don’t you, RTÉ. *Dramatically throws hands in the air*.

Anyway, here’s a look at the bloopers to give you an idea of what’s to come from Holding Out for a Hero…
