Ryan Tubridy, Joe Duffy, Eurovision... is the RTÉ soap opera back in business?
As a new summer dawns, RTÉ finds itself haunted by old ghosts. Ryan Tubridy may have happily swapped Donnybrook for London, but he and his agent Noel Kelly are currently engaged in a lengthy quest for answers related to Tubridy’s departure in 2023.
