Irish comedian hits back at criticism about new Virgin Media housing crisis series

Navan comedian Michael Fry has hit back at criticism regarding his new six-part show about the housing crisis impacting so many people across the country.

In the first episode of the new show, Help Me Buy a Home, which aired on Virgin Media One on Sunday, buyer’s agent Liz O’Kane navigates some potential house buyers through the minefield that is hunting for a home.

As well as a single person and a retired couple looking for homes, funnyman Michael Fry is also featured as a representative of “generation rent”. The sketch comedian spends the day with Housing Minister Darragh O'Brien asking him various questions about the state of the housing market and if things could improve for Michael’s generation.
