Dublin would be a better location for it I'd imagine.

If they wanted to get some interesting guests on for a start.

The reason they have kept it in Cork was that it was cheaper there. Must be very hard for them to get good guests there.

Yeah I think it'd be easier

Studio 2 at RTE Television Centre could fit for the show I am sure, or even use Studio 5 when sport aren't in. As RTE consolidates its portfolio, it would seem the possible move from September 2020.

The new look of today from RTÉ Cork looks very impressive.

The new theme music is nice & lighter to listen to on the ear. The lighting effects on the set has a lot of bright colours in it.

Isn't the programme an 'OB drive in' rig, (by TVM OBs from up the road) ?

And everything is still not Full HD!

Maybe they are waiting for their move to Dublin in 2020 before full HD is used

XPOSÉ has been axed by Virgin Media Television.
It’s final episode will air on Friday week, the 4th of October.
Could this mean that Karen will stay on Ireland AM with Ciara and Alan as Mark’s replacement?

Not too surprised - seemed to be bumped around the schedule once they took over UTV.

Virgin Media Television have announced a new daytime lineup.
Ireland AM is to be extended by 30 minutes, bringing it up to 11am. This Morning will stop airing on Virgin Media One and Loose Women will stop airing on Virgin Media Two on the 4th, the same day that XPOSÉ will end. Elaine will move to a new slot at 11am and Colette Fitzpatrick will present an hour long news show called “Live at 12”, getting rid of the News at 12:30. Also, the Six O’Clock Show will return to a 5 day week as XPOSÉ has been axed. The new lineup will air for the first time on the 7th of October.

EDIT: I have also read that they are doing away with Weekend AM, and broadcasting with the regular Ireland AM format on Saturdays and Sundays.

2RN & RTÉ Guide are now both mooted to be put up for sale by RTÉ according to the Times website.

No harm that 2RN becomes independent of RTÉ. I think it's been stifling any attempts for Virgin Media or TG4 or any of the independent radio stations, to get on or expand on the Saorview platform.
