Virgin Media Television Announces Ground breaking New Series – The Assembly Ireland 

Virgin Media Television is proud to announce the launch of The Assembly Ireland, an inclusive and compelling new television format that will change the way we see interviews on Irish screens.

The series premieres Monday, 19 January at 9pm on Virgin Media PLAY and Virgin Media One, continuing weekly for four episodes. 

The Assembly Ireland is a fearless new format where well-known Irish personalities are interviewed by a group of autistic and neurodivergent reporters, known as ‘The Assembly’, and absolutely nothing is off limits. The group has prepared for these interviews over time and are primed and ready to ask everything they – and you – want asked and answered. 

This groundbreaking series showcases neurodiversity and inclusion in a way never seen before on Irish television, broadening perspectives and creating national conversations around difference, understanding, and inclusion. The interviewers come from diverse backgrounds, different world views and life experiences, but share two key traits: a disarming authenticity and a commitment to the truth. These interviews are different from anything you have seen before. 

Across the series, Micheál Martin, Joanne McNally, Rosie O’Donnell and Ryan Tubridy honestly answer – or try to – all the questions posed to them. From raw truths to unexpected revelations, prepare for a series that rips up the rulebook on celebrity interviews and dares to ask it all. 

Based on the international hit format from Can’t Stop Media, The Assembly Ireland is produced by Kite Entertainment for Virgin Media Television with support from Coimisiún na Meán’s Sound and Vision Funding Scheme. 

The Assembly Ireland premieres Monday, 19 January at 9pm on Virgin Media PLAY and Virgin Media One.
