DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
UEFA Euro 2016 Live (RTÉ Two 5pm)
Two groups on the line tonight – and over the four games there are some crucial encounters for Ireland. Firstly, Northern Ireland take on Germany at 5pm on RTÉ 2. If Germany win, that means that Ireland just need to beat Italy tomorrow night to secure passage to the next round. Easy.
The Czech Republic then face Turkey – kick off at 8pm on RTÉ 2 – where a draw or Turkey win would also do the job for Ireland. Croatia vs Spain on TV3 might actually provide the better watch though. Get the calculators out for the permutations…
Born on the Same Day (Channel 4, 9pm)
A profile of three different women with identical birthdays – supermodel, Twiggy, campaigner against hate crimes Sylvia Swain, and Anne Smith, who uncovered a family secret that was hidden for 50 years. #BornOnTheSameDay
Follow Donal (RTÉ One, 8.30pm)
Amsterdam is having a food revival, and Donal Skehan is out to discover the best of it. Here he goes fishing with a married couple before cooking up their tasty catch. #followdonal
Everybody’s talking about… a potential Peaky Blinders film
Imagine.
Cillian Murphy told The Express:
I’m sort of like, ‘Eh, yeah, I don’t know, I’m not sure’. I love the idea sort of theoretically, but it has to come at the right time, you know?
Somebody organise this immediately.
Or flick over for…
- Better Off Abroad: The Irish in Silicon Valley (RTÉ One, 9.35pm) A repeat of the George Lee doc on the Irish in tech.
- The People v OJ Simpson (BBC 2, 11.15pm) This excellent series is still going over on BBC.
- The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (E4, 9pm) If you want to get as far away from football as humanly possible.
- Euro 2016 Highlights (RTÉ 2, 10.30pm) Just in case you missed anything earlier.
