A documentary about the formation of the East Belfast GAA club has begun airing on RTE - and viewers south of the border have reportedly been enjoying it. The multi-part series had already had its premiere on the BBC last week but now it is getting a wider audience.
Shot entirely in Irish, 'Le Chéile' introduced viewers to members from various backgrounds who have found a sporting home at the Gaelic Athletic Association club, Irish Mirror reports. "This is despite the club not yet having its own pitch - as it was revealed that they use a council pitch in the south-east part of the city," says the Mirror's Vincent Whelan.
"However, while they are playing catch-up to other more established clubs, all of their teams appear to have hit the ground running. The camogie team in particular seem to have immediately picked up the game (granted they do have some members who have played before) as they won their opening five matches.
