RTÉjr Goes Dancing With The Stars

 Episode 10

TX:  Thursday 14th March at 6pm on RTÉjr

Feeling the tension begin to mount for the dancers and the judges alike, Darragh and Darcy decide to treat their guests to a bit of tlc. Starting with Lorraine, they go posh with a fancy full china afternoon tea for their chat about her international dancing and teaching career. For their catch-up with Mairéad it’s sweet comfort – a quiz about herself, her dance partner John and her son Darragh over a hot chocolate in a cosy cafe. Presenter Nicky draws the short straw – they actually interrupt his meditation to chat to him about soccer, Eurovision, Westlife and the empathy he brings having taken part in Strictly Come Dancing himself. Judge Brian teaches the pair the paso doble – and they’re rather good!

Sparkly news and fun for littles and families on RTÉjr.

 Series

For the first time children’s audiences have their very own place at the DWTS party. RTÉjr Goes Dancing With The Stars is a weekly entertainment show with presenters Darcy(11) and Darragh (13) bringing all the behind the scenes news and fun to young families on RTÉjr television. It’s a sparkling playground for this young presenting team to make mischief! They have the perfect kids-eye-view of the show with access to explore all of the angles younger viewers might be curious about: catch-ups with dancers, judges and presenters, dip into captain sparkle’s workshop, having a go at make-up & hair – just whatever catches their eye. There’s nowhere and nobody out of bounds to Darcy & Darragh.

All of that plus reporting from the hustle and bustle of backstage nerves.

Join Darcy and Darragh for the perfect sparkly antidote to the ‘bad news’ at 6 o’clock.
