RTE Player in Beta

RTÉ is currently beta-testing its new online Player facility, a free online catch-up service which lets Irish viewers watch a variety of programmes for up to 21 days after they are broadcast on RTÉ One and RTÉ Two television.

There are new programmes available every day, and include Entertainment, Arts, Music, Irish Language, Drama, Religious, News, Current Affairs, Factual, Lifestyle, and Young Peoples' shows.

Currently, there are two short films available to watch until early May: "My Dad", written and directed by John Vaughan, and "Badly Drawn Roy", written by Alan & Frank Shannon, and directed by Alan Shannon.
