Everyone’s talking about… David McSavage
Yesterday, the comedian appeared in court for not paying his television licence, citing RTÉ’s recent comedy output. Later that day, The Savage Eye was named Best Comedy at the Celtic Media Awards.
Good timing, eh?
In a statement, RTÉ stated that they loved working with David McSavage, but defended their comedy programmes.
We love David and we love his work. He’s a maverick and a comic genius and the fact that his RTÉ 2 series The Savage Eye has won the best comedy category at the Celtic Media Festival … is testament to his talent and to the team he worked with on the show. We are very proud of all four series of the Savage Eye and we know David is too.
Comedy – like television programming in general – is hugely subjective and not everyone is going to enjoy everything we produce, even The Savage Eye.
Eat Pray Love (RTÉ Two, 9pm) Julia Roberts eats pasta and finds herself.
The Stand Ups (TV3, 10.25pm) Documentary series about some of Ireland’s hottest young stand-ups.
Wrecking The Rising (TG4, 9.30pm) New 1916-themed sitcom starting tonight.
Shakespeare Live! From the RSC (BBC Two, 8.30pm) In honour of William Shakespeare’s 400th birthday, actors like Judi Dench, Benedict Cumberbatch and Helen Mirren perform some of his most iconic scenes.
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s 50 Greatest Ever Stunts (Channel 4, 8pm) And if Shakespeare ain’t your thing, Arnie is over recounting his best stunts on Channel 4.
