In a brand new factual entertainment series for RTÉ One, we step inside what could be considered the most secretive room in Ireland – the Credit Union loan office.

For most of us, no significant life event ever goes “unborrowed”, and it’s often said that milestones in family life can be charted through a quick glance at someone’s Credit Union book.

There’s a story behind every loan and in this series we meet the people who borrow money for all sorts of reasons, from family reunions, to new cars, houses, cosmetic procedures and shopping sprees.

Filming in Credit Unions across the country in Tralee, Waterford, Dublin and Mullingar we get to know country music singers hoping to make it to Nashville, Makeup artists searching for the perfect smile and gymnasts trying to balance their books.

Series 1, episode 4

Makeup artist Noranne is chasing a “Hollywood Smile”, Latvian plasterer Igors needs to return home and a community group want one hundred thousand euro.

There are eight episodes in this first series of The Borrowers.
