Weekend Breakfast with Alison CurtisShow Notes
Anna Daly is in for Alison Curtis on Weekend Breakfast and she has two bold brats in studio as she welcomes Irish rugby legend Gordon D’Arcy and writer Paul Howard for a chat that starts with World Cup sleep deprivation!
The writing duo are back with 'Let’s Play Football', an interactive, co-reading adventure where kids take the free kicks, dodge setbacks, and lift the trophy at the end — with Ash Chacko's fabulous video-game-style illustrations bringing the match to life.
Plus, Paul talks Bad Sisters: how Sharon Horgan brought him into the writers’ room, and why Ireland has never looked better on screen.
