The One Show comes to Northern Ireland for a week for special programmes

Presenters Alex Jones and Matt Baker are bringing The One Show’s sofas to Northern Ireland for a week of live programmes. It will be the first time that the show has left the London studio for a week on the road.

Matt and Alex They will be making their way up the Causeway Coastal Route as head from Carrickfergus to the Giant’s Causeway from Monday 7 August to Friday 11 August, stopping at Cushendall, Ballycastle and Portrush along the way.

Alex says: "It's always great fun when we to take the show on the road, and I'm really looking forward to coming to Northern Ireland for the week. We'll be visiting some fantastic locations and bringing some great stories to The One Show audience."

Films across the week will include The One Show presenter Angela Scanlon and Joe Lindsay travelling along the Causeway Coastal Route in Northern Ireland’s most iconic car - the DeLorean. They make detours to some better-known and some lesser-known stop off points on the Antrim Coast Road. They discover a World War Two connection at the Londonderry Arms Hotel in Carnlough, go fairy hunting at Cushendall, and drop in on Dunluce Castle and the Bushmills Distillery’s Cooperage.

As well as the regular features and films, Matt and Alex will be joined by celebrity guests throughout the week including Dublin band The Script, country music star Nathan Carter and singer and actress Martine McCutcheon.

The One Show will broadcast live from Carrickfergus Castle on Monday 7 August (due to limited space this broadcast is invitation only), before bringing the programme from the Heart of the Glens Food Festival in Cushendall on Tuesday 8 August; the Ballycastle seafront on Wednesday 9 August; the east Strand promenade in Portrush on Thursday 10 August; with the final programme of the week coming from the iconic Giant’s Causeway on Friday 9 August.
