Dáithí spoke of his excitement at landing the deal: "It's a fantastic opportunity to present a show like this and will be great to be based in the People's Republic.

Maura and I have been pals for the last two years and Bláthnaid and I were fellow judges on the All Ireland Talent Show so it will be brilliant working with people I know so well.

“Father Matthew Street won't know what hit it,” he said.
