Gogglebox Ireland maker will produce Irish version of hit French interview format featuring well-known personalities

Virgin Media Television has commissioned Kite Entertainment to make an interview series based on a French hit that will see some of Ireland’s most famous personalities asked questions by a group of about 30 neurodivergent people.

“Every now and then, you come across a show that has both a proper entertainment punch and a real purpose,” said Kite Entertainment managing director Darren Smith.E-gates of hell signal start of travel chaos season The show, which is not yet in production, will likely air in 2025, with interviewees still to be confirmed.

The series, created by Quad+Ten and Kiosco TV and initiated by French film-makers Éric Toledano and Olivier Nakache, has aired on French public service television as Les Rencontres du Papotin since 2022. The format, distributed by London and Paris-based Can’t Stop Media, has been commissioned in the Irish market by Virgin following the backing of Coimisiún na Meán, which awarded it just under €400,000 in the most recent round of the licence fee-financed Sound and Vision scheme.
