Virgin Media Cancels Anticipated Show

In an unexpected turn of events, Virgin Media Television has decided to cancel the new season of the Irish-language dating show, Grá ar an Trá, which was set to air imminently. This decision stems from regulatory concerns regarding presenter Gráinne Seoige’s dual role as an election candidate. The show, which was positioned to charm audiences over five weeks, now finds itself shelved due to potential conflicts with election broadcast guidelines.

Despite Seoige’s popularity and her previous success in engaging audiences with her captivating presence, the timing of the show’s airing could have compromised the fairness regulations set by Coimisiún na Meán. Regulations dictate that broadcasters must allocate airtime fairly during election periods, particularly when candidates are involved. Though the cancellation leaves fans disappointed, the series may still grace screens at a later date after the elections, putting Seoige’s dual talents on display.

“The scheduling of programming is a matter for individual broadcasters, but compliance with Media Codes is mandatory.”
