Radio presenter and Snapchat star Doireann Garrihy received all round praise for her new show The Doireann Project.
The show, which features Doireann doing a host of different skits and impersonations, debuted on the RTÉ Player last night. Doireann told fans that it was just a pilot and test for now. But, depending on how well it goes down, there’s a possibility that it might be extended to a full series online or on TV.
And, judging by the response, it more than likely will.
We’ve seen Doireann doing some impressive impersonations over the last few months, but she takes it to the next level in the show. New impressions of Saoirse Ronan and Pippa O’Connor went down a treat. Not to mention Garda Doireann and Daithi O’Shea.
Here’s a snippet:
