One Million Dubliners (RTE One, 10.15pm)

An Bronntanas (TG4, 9.30pm)

The TG4 series, which apparently makes “Love/Hate look like Postman Pat“, concludes tonight. 340,000 people reportedly watch the first four episodes and if you’re one of them, you definitely won’t want to miss out on the finale.

Everyone’s talking about: Bill Cosby

The embattled comedian, who is currently at the centre of multiple rape allegations, has had several projects cancelled in recent days, including a Netflix special and a proposed NBC sitcom.
