Watched with delight the first three episodes of 'Leonard & Hungry Paul' adapted from the novel by Rónán Hession. Beautifully scripted, designed, directed and acted by a superb cast, it has all the warmth and generosity of the original and some extra gags. Gorgeous.

Could I just a huge thanks and pay tribute to the wonderful work of @richieconroy.bsky.social and Mark Hodkinson who wrote the script for the Leonard and Hungry Paul series. Aside from it being a sensitive adaptation also they brought so many brilliant ideas of their own to it. Am hugely grateful.

Alex Lawther and Jamie-Lee O’Donnell star in this adaptation of Rónán Hession’s understated 2019 novel. Its quiet celebration of the gentle life is the opposite of today’s frantic TV – even if it does...

Are you or someone in your life learning Irish and wish you had something fun to read? @richieconroy.bsky.social’s book An Jailtecht: Dialann Emily Porter is a lovely bilingual story of a young girl who spends her summer in the Gaeltacht in the mid-90s, and ramps up the Irish as you read.
