UTV Ireland announces Daniel and Majella’s B&B Road Trip

UTV Ireland today announced that filming is set to begin on a brand new travel show starring Daniel and Majella O’Donnell.

The new six-part series called ‘Daniel and Majella’s B&B Road Trip’ is a reality travel show with a difference. The popular couple will take to the road visiting areas of natural beauty and taking in all that Ireland has to offer, while staying only in B&B accommodation throughout their trip.

Their B&B hosts will act as tour guides, showing them around the area and, as well as sharing stories across the dinner and breakfast table, local performers and characters will make cameo appearances for evenings of ‘craic agus ceoil’ with entertainment from Daniel and other local performers.

Speaking about the launch of the new series, Mary Curtis, UTV Ireland’s Head of Channel, said: “Daniel and Majella are hugely popular with Irish audiences and they are a fantastic couple who complement each other perfectly. Throughout the show, we will get to know them better as a couple, whilst seeing them as we have never seen them before. Their warm and fun personalities make them ideal hosts for this series. We are delighted to be welcoming Daniel and Majella to the UTV Ireland schedule and I think this series will resonate with people of all ages.”

The show will be produced by VIP Productions and filming is due to start in early July. The show will be on UTV Ireland later this year. More details on locations and dates for filming in each area will be announced in the coming weeks.
