ENTERTAINMENT ON RTÉ One

Please see RTÉ Call for Ideas which went up on RTÉ website this afternoon (Thursday 29th October 2015)

Sunday nights in Autumn have always been big nights for RTE One Entertainment. This is an opportunity for the family to sit down together to watch exciting and engaging television that appeals to all ages. Programmes which have worked well in this slot are Celebrity Bainisteoir and Irelands Fittest Family and we want to see more of this family friendly entertainment on RTÉ One. There is a big audience available for this competitive slot and a chance to try something really different, compelling and engaging. Proposals ranging from formatted studio programmes, location factual entertainment or an entirely different format with personality / presenter driven content will be given consideration.

No of Episodes/ Duration | 14 x 50 mins

Transmission | RTÉ One Sunday, 18.30 Autumn 2016

Budget | Up to €105K per hour

All proposals should be warm and lively in tone with broad family appeal. Suggestions for presenters should be included in submissions.

We are looking for proposals that run for 14 episodes but we will also consider propositions that run for either 6 or 8 episodes.

We ask, in the first instance, that producers submit ideas into the eCommissioning system:

e-commissioning.rte.ie under the programme category "Entertainment Sunday 18.30 – Autumn 2016"

The deadline for receipt of submissions is 12 noon Friday December 18. (Strict Deadline)
