@theyoungoffenders Smash hit show returns with Season 5 on Good Friday, April 3. The show, produced by Vico Films for the BBC in association with RTÉ, will also be broadcast weekly on RTÉ One TV starting on Saturday 4 April and on BBC One TV from Friday April 3 for UK viewers. The original cast returns for season 5 with Chris Walley as Jock O'Keeffe, Alex Murphy as Conor MacSweeney, Hilary Rose as Mairéad MacSweeney, Shane Casey as Billy Murphy, Demi Isaac-Oviawe as Linda Walsh, Dominic MacHale as Sergeant Healy, Jennifer Barry as Siobhán Walsh with Danny Power as Gavin Madigan, P.J. Gallagher as Principal Barry Walsh and Orla Fitzgerald as Orla Walsh. Season 5 sees Conor and Jock back together after a disastrous brush with the law saw them spend time in jail on two different continents. After a chance opportunity allows Jock to escape back from Colombia to Cork, the lads slip back into their old ways quickly, wreaking havoc everywhere but still only wanting the best for themselves and their families. Conor faces losing the love of his life; Jock tries to rebuild his relationship with Star; and crazy plans with locals to try to improve their lives leave them taking big risks, but that’s what best friends do. Creator Peter Foott said “It’s a joy to be able to bring season 5 of The Young Offenders to fans of the show who have followed these characters for 10 years now, it’s the 10th anniversary of the release of the film. Season 5 brings Conor and Jock back together, with a stronger bond than they’ve ever had, and we’re really excited to share these chaotic and heart-warming stories with audiences. The team is the best to work with, and we’ve ended up creating something special for this new season I think.” Stream all 6 episodes of season 5 of The Young Offenders from April 3 on the RTÉ Player and iPlayer for viewers in the UK. @bbc @rteone #TYO #comedy #irish #corkcity

Spilt Milk, released by Beach Pictures and directed by Brian Durnin, follows 11-year-old Bobby O’Brien, a boy who dreams of becoming a great detective like his TV hero Kojak. Bobby sets up his own private-investigation enterprise with his best friend Nell and they embark on a quest to find Bobby’s older brother Oisín. @spiltmilkfilm was developed with the support of @screenireland , @cnam.ie , RTÉ & @screenscots along with support from the Irish and UK government film tax credits. The film made its World Premiere at @tallinnblacknightsff , before winning the MUBI Audience Award at @glasgowfilmfest . It also screened to acclaim at the Galway Film Fleadh and won Best Film at Zlin - Czechia; Olympia - Greece and the Kerry International Film Festival Audience Award in 2025. Spilt Milk is produced by Laura McNicholas for 925 Productions and James Heath for Randan and is written by Cara Loftus, with Cormac Fox of Vico Films as executive producer. The film was nominated for Best Film at the IFTA Awards 2025, along with nominations for Best Director, Best Script and Best Costume Design. In a gritty 1980s Dublin inner city neighbourhood, 11-year-old Bobby ( @cillian_sullivan - Blue Moon) idolises TV detective Kojak and sets up a private eye agency with his best friend. However, when Bobby’s rebellious older brother goes missing, their investigations turn chillingly real — leading them into secrets and danger far beyond what children are ready to face. Nevertheless, Bobby’s brave, loving and inspirational Mother ( @daniellegalligan_ -'House Of Guinness') leads him through these tough times. Director: @huggyd Writer: @caralofty Producers: @laura_mcnicholas (925 Productions) and @jamesjheath (@randanproductions ) in association with @vicofilms Executive Producers: @foxcormac Cara Loftus Associate Producer: @friendlyneighbourhoodcolman Line Producer: @niamhclancygale Cinematographer: @watterscathal Production Designer: @maconrua Costume Designer: @the_gwen_and_only Casting Director: @aineosullivancasting Composer: @scott_twynholm @beachpictures.ie @screenireland @spiltmilkfilm

It's with great excitement we're sharing that the powerhouse Bríd Brennan won Best Actress at the @civitanovafilmfestival last week. Room Taken was also given the audience award for Best Short. It's amazing that our film is still getting an audience at film festivals two years after our premiere. @screenireland #shortfilm #Irishfilm
