Louise Cantillon, Séaghan Ó Suilleabháin and Proinsias Ó Coinn in Toronto
Limerick’s own Louise Cantillon is back on screens this week, fronting the latest season of Téacs Taistil on TG4.
The Kilcoran native is front and centre throughout the series, which takes in seven cities across the globe, including Chicago, Toronto and Derry.
Now recognised as one of Ireland’s leading radio and television presenters, she brings what producers describe as “infectious energy” to the show.
Throughout the series, the Today FM radio presenter embraces a wide range of roles, from performing as a burlesque stage kitten in Chicago to immersing herself in the characters and businesses of Chinatown in Toronto.
In the opening episode, she travels to Toronto where she explores the city and learns how to make dumplings.
Ms Cantillon, who is also co-creator and host of the popular podcast How To Gael, is a qualified Irish and PE teacher, and known for combining her passion for education with her media career.
Described as “fearless, curious, and always up for an adventure,” Ms Cantillon’s personality is a driving force in the series.
Téacs Taistil returns to TG4 on Thursday, April 2 at 9.30pm.
