That's it, RTÉ, we officially need a spin-off show.
After the O'Donovan brothers went viral earlier in the week thanks to a wonderfully positive and supremely Irish interview, the lads have quickly become some of the most popular Irish athletes at the Olympics.
On Thursday evening (morning in Rio) the pair qualified for the finals of the men's double sculls, so naturally they were going to give another interview to RTÉ. We hoped it would be as entertaining as the first... And it absolutely was!
The O'Donovan brothers were delighted to beat the Brits and reach an Olympic final #rterio2016 #rowing https://t.co/ul0rQyZLvc

And it's great to beat the Brits as well!
We genuinely love these lads, we are hoping and praying that they win gold, not only for them, and Ireland, but for the interview after the fact. It will be simply glorious if it happens.
But that wasn't it, the longer cut is simply magnificent.
Keep up the good work lads, you're absolute heroes. Even if they've gone "big time" with the shades.
