All four provinces of Ireland have now had at least one Junior Eurovision representative. Not bad on our 10th anniversary.

Ní amháin gur labhair mé le daltaí ollscoile na todhchaí ag Higher Options faoin obair ar fad a dhéanann Foras na Gaeilge ach chuir mé réamhaisnéis na haimsire i láthair chomh maith!

What a finish to one of the greatest things to grace Irish television in the 21st century. RTÉ have hit it out of the park with #TraitorsIRL because they took something international and made it very Irish. I'm already looking forward to series 2!

Where's the whole "You're awfully quiet. You must be a Traitor" argument gone when the two people that said the least are Traitors?! Open your eyes girlos! #TraitorsIRL

At this point, I'm waiting for Wilkin to turn around and say that he has a PhD in Behavourial Psychology and has everyone figured out. #TraitorsIRL

That roundtable got too personal and further strengthened my belief that the Traitors need to be taken out asap. #TraitorsIRL

Everyone in Ireland sending Oyin psychic reinforcements right now so that she can oust Nick and Ben. #TraitorsIRL

Bhí seachtain ghnóthach agam ach bhí am agam chun dul ar Splanc ar Newstalk chun labhairt faoin nuacht is déanaí maidir le hÉire agus an Eorafís 2026.Tá m'agallamh le cloisteáil ar na hardáin ar fad!

I know other versions do funeral missions but no one does funerals quite like the Irish! #TraitorsIRL

No need for a round table tonight because Siobhán just murdered Vanessa. #TraitorsIRL

Paudie should just recruit Wilkin because not a single soul would suspect someone who has been like this the entire game. #TraitorsIRL

The fact Oyin has everyone figured out but the Traitors never seem to see her as a threat is fascinating to me. I'm surprised Oyin hasn't said that she sees herself with the prize money yet tbh. #TraitorsIRL

Honestly, if The George doesn't organise a live final viewing with our diva Oyin as a special guest, we have failed as a society. #TraitorsIRL

It's sad that it has come to this but I completely stand behind RTÉ's decision. A country that wants to wipe an entire group of people from existence, runs a government-backed voting campaign and whose journalists harass others should not be in Eurovision.

Ireland picking CMAT for this is probably the closest we'll get to sending CMAT to actual Eurovision.

Since I went to my first Irish dance class in five years this week, here's a throwback to when I was part of the winning Céilí Club team at the World Irish Dancing Championship in 2020. I've also been told that Céilí Club hasn't been held since then, so I'm still a reigning champion!

Eamon and Katelyn plotting Paudie's downfall only for Paudie to be last Traitor standing has given me such clear skin. #TraitorsIRL

Andrew deserves to stay because he recognises Oyin's clairvoyant powers. #TraitorsIRL

Siobhán becomes more mother with every episode and the people of Ireland deserve nothing less. #TraitorsIRL

This Round Table is about to turn into the Hunger Games and I'm here for it. As for Paudie... #TraitorsIRL

The fact that everyone is getting so close to catching the Traitors but are still so far away is so nervewrecking. Listen to SherMark Holmes! #TraitorsIRL

I'm absolutely loving the integration of Irish folklore into the challenges. It's making a great series even better. #TraitorsIRL
