Pat Shortt Is Watching Killinaskully 'For The First Time' While In Quarantine

Let's face it, while on lockdown we are turning to TV to keep ourselves occupied. Many of us are discovering shows we have never seen before, in fact just this week Netflix revealed they had seen a huge spike in sign up's in the last month. But it seems like even the most famous people in Ireland are spending their time binge watching TV too. This morning on Dermot & Dave Pat Shortt revealed that he is watching Killinaskully for the first time, admitting despite writing the show, he had never seen a single episode. The legendary comedian says the reason he had never watched it was because when he was working on the show, he would have been too obsessed with what could have been done differently in each scene. RTÉ announced last week that it would be reshowing Killinaskully on a Sunday evening, after fans called on the broadcaster to bring back some of their 'classic' TV shows during the Covid-19 lockdown. Hit play to hear Pat's full chat with Dermot & Dave, where he discusses what skill he has been learning while stuck at home. see more
