DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
World Cup Qualifier: Moldova v Republic of Ireland (RTÉ 2, 7pm)
It’s a big night for the boys in green. After scraping past Georgia in Dublin the other night, Ireland are without a couple of key players for the trip to Moldova tonight. Analysis comes from Damien Duff, Didi Hamann and Richie Sadlier, and commentary will be by George Hamilton and Jim Beglin. COYBIG.
IFTA Gala Televisions Awards (TV3, 10pm)
The IFTA TV Awards took place in Dublin on Friday night (get yer full list of winners here) and it makes it on to TV3 for our viewing pleasure tonight. Amanda Byram is the host, and Pat Kenny picks up a lifetime achievement award. Catch it all from 10pm.
The Fall (RTÉ One, 9.30pm)
It’s been a slow enough start to the third series, but it promises to get a bit more dramatic as it hits its stride. Jamie Dornan is also the star of The Siege of Jadotville which is on Netflix right now – so you can have a full on Dornan-fest this Sunday evening if you want.
Everyone’s talking about… Alan Carr’s Chatty Man has been axed
After 16 series, The Sun is reporting that flagging ratings have seen him pack it in – as he couldn’t compete with Graham Norton and Jonathan Ross.

Also, Ed Balls on Strictly last night was quite something:

Or flick over for…
- Ireland with Simon Reeve (BBC Two, 7pm) The second leg of Simon’s journey around Ireland begins at the Giant’s Causeway.
- Poldark (BBC One, 9pm) H’on Aidan.
- Kevin McGahern’s America (RTÉ 2, 11.30pm) Another chance to see Kevin’s documentary exploring aspects of life across in the US. Excellent.
- Trump vs Clinton Live: US Presidential Debate (Channel 4, among others, 1.35am) It’s the BIG one. And it’s bound to be worth staying up for/setting the alarm.
- The X Factor (TV3, 8pm) Results night.
