  1. is that transvestites or televisions,  don't take offence its only a joke.


  2. I'd say:

    pretty much most of the English shite, such as Coronation St, Eastenders, Hollyoaks, Emmerdale.

    A lot of American Shite too:

    Judge Judy, Law & Order, CSI, Desperate Housewives.

    And even a little Irish shite

    News, sport, Irish history

    Unless you have cable, satellite or Digital, you only have 3 choices unless you can speak Irish (RTÉ1, RTÉ2 and TV3 are in English, TG4 is in Irish, maybe it would be OK to English speakers with the subtitles, but d**n, Ros na Rún is terrible, even for soaps, and even if you did speak fluent Irish.

  3. RTE 1 AND2 TV3 AND TNGor bog 1 and bog 2 as we call them life is so exciting here in ireland

  4. i think toshiba-possibly grundig-not sure but all rectangular:-)

  5. The same as anywhere else i would think! as i don't think Ireland is on Mars!!!! at least it wasn't last time i looked on the map. duh!!!!

  6. From what I've seen, some same shows as us (The X Files, Big Brother - but it's the UK version, Law & Order, movie channels, news channels, soaps - but irish soaps - not Days or All My Children) - some of my favourites where the psychic/ghost programs.

  7. there's 4 Irish tv channels:

    -RTE 1

    -Network 2

    -TV 3

    -TG 4

    they show a mix of tv shows but the most popular ones are usually the american ones like lost, desperate housewives, prison break and 24...the english soaps are popular as well. there's not many good irish tv shows...

    many Irish people subscribe to cable as well though which offers hundreds of different channels, some English ones such as BBC and Channel 4 as well as movie and sports channels

  8. I was over there a few months ago and I wondered the very same thing.

    So I went into a TV shop and hey! - guess what!

    They had exactly the same as we have in England.

    They had brown ones, white ones, green ones and silver ones, and 18 inch ones and 21 inch ones and . . . . . . etc

  9. Irish TV's

  10. Basic TV, you get:

    RTÉ One

    RTÉ Two - secondary RTÉ national

    TV3 - independent commercial broadcaster

    TG Ceathair--pronounced TG "cah'her" - Irish language channel

    Sky Digital (includes):  

    Setanta Sports

    Bubble Hits (music)

    The Den (kids channel)

    Dáil

    DTV

    Discovery Channel

    National Geographics Channel

    MTV Ireland

    Nickelodeon

    Nick Jr

    Sky News Ireland

    Sky Sports 1

    Sky Sports 2

    Technically speaking:

    Analogue television in both parts of Ireland uses System I with 625 lines and the PAL colour standard, with NICAM digital stereo sound where applicable. In the Republic both VHF and UHF are used but in Northern Ireland, in common with the rest of the UK, VHF is no longer used for analogue TV. VHF for TV transmission is slowly being phased out in Ireland - only RTÉ One and RTÉ Two are on VHF band III in some areas, and the more recently established stations (TV3 and TG4) have been only broadcast on UHF.

    There is no public digital terrestrial television in the Republic of Ireland as yet, although RTÉ and the Department of Communications, Marine & Natural Resources are trialling a DVB-T based system at the moment. Digital terrestrial television in Ireland is currently limited to retransmitting the nationally available TV and radio services via a single multiplex.

    UK DTT aka Freeview can be received in parts of Wicklow, Wexford, Westmeath, Roscommon, Sligo as well as those counties bordering Northern Ireland.

  11. Same sort that's everywhere else. If you mean channels: RTE1, RTE2, TV3 and TG4.

  12. They tend to have similar telly's to us, but with irish people inside them!

  13. Ireland has hundreds of stations as any other country satelite / cable and many more ,the irish tv station is called RTE  which means RADIO TELEFIS EIREANN and have imported programmes and some home made ones / soaps home and imported / news / current events etc.Snozeeny don't be making little of your country  Ireland is one of the richest countries for its size .

  14. If you mean transvestite, they are usually tall.

    If you mean television, then they have the kind that operates off of electricity whereby you plug the TV into the wall's electrical outlet.
