  1. Half a million of tax payers money to make a show and they can’t do due diligence

    Virgin Media has confirmed that one of the contestants, part-time Kerry farmer Mike Prendeville (30), has been completely edited out of the final version.
    This came after an undisclosed criminal conviction of a Section 2 assault of a woman at a hotel in Kerry in 2022.

    Prendeville also featured on RTÉ’s Love in the Country in May last year.

  2. He’s some eejit. Surely he knew this would come to light at some stage.

  3. Can we just like not hit women please. Or anyone for that matter. 

  4. Was he on the most recent series of love in the country? I dont remember him. And it’s not on rte player any more

  5. Wasn’t it delayed because Grainne Seoige was running for election as the show was due to air?

  6. Regardless of the ins and outs of yer man’s conviction, this is a ball achingly painful process to go through

    The series would have been almost completely edited so they’d obviously have to go back and recut every episode to change the order of the finishers but that’s the easy part

    This show is shot a bit like love island with a group all living together in a house. The amount of times this guy is going to turn up in the background of a shot is a LOT and then there’s stuff like reflections as well

    Really don’t envy the editors on this one

  7. Hope his sentence was increased for being in two of the shittest things on tv

  8. His best buddy bate the shit out of his girlfriend, wonder is it a Kerry thing or a YouTuber thing.

  9. I watched a couple of episodes last year and from what I could tell the contestants for the most part seemed likeable down to earth compared to what I witnessed from the adverts for this current season so this does not surprise me.
