Yesterday’s pulsating Division 1 Final of the Allianz National Football League attracted the highest ever viewing figures for a single programme on TG4, according to official TAM Ireland figures. Dublin’s spectacular win over Kerry reached an audience of 621,000 while also earning TG4 a share of 38% of all people viewing TV in Ireland during the final. In total, almost three quarters of a million viewers (739,000) tuned to TG4 for some part of the afternoon’s coverage from Croke Park, which included both the division 1 and division 2 finals and also the spectacular Laochra presentation of music, dance, song and pagentary that took place on the hallowed Croke Park turf immediately after yesterday’s League finals; the Laochra programme also making it into TG4’s all-time Top 10. Yesterday’s coverage from Croke Park rounded off a busy GAA weekend for TG4 which had also provided live coverage of the Division 3 and Division 4 League Finals from Croke Park on Saturday afternoon. TG4 Ardstiúrthóir Pól Ó Gallchóir, is naturally very pleased with Sunday’s audience figures. “This weekend was always going to be a historic occasion in Croke Park,” he said “not just for the eight footballing counties participating in this year’s Allianz Football League Finals but their supporters and the large cast and crew for the wonderful Laochra project. The weather, the football and the spectaclular event that rounded off the day all combined to make for thrilling television. The record-breaking TV audience bears testament to the value of what TG4 stands for, the quality of the content that it provides and the audience engagement.” Contact: Linda Ní Ghríofa, linda.ni.ghriofa@tg4.ie Cuir aithne orainn @TG4TV www.tg4.tv

Thuill an clúdach ar Chluiche Ceannais Roinn 1 den tSraith Náisiúnta Peile an lucht féachana ab airde riamh do chlár aonair do TG4 ó bunaíodh é, de réir na dtorthaí ó TAM Ireland, an miosúr oifigiúil teilifíse. D’fhéach 621,000 ar bhua Átha Cliath ar Chiarraí sa gcluiche sin agus beagnach beirt as gach cúigear (38%) den lucht féachana iomlán teilifíse in Éirinn lena linn. Is curiarracht iad na torthaí féachana sin ar aon. Agus an beochraoladh TG4 ar imeachtaí iomlána na hiarnóine san áireamh, d’fhéach beagnach trí ceathrú milliún duine (739,000) ar an aicsean imeartha agus oirfide as Páirc an Chrócaigh inné, ina raibh an Cluiche Ceannais i Roinn 2 (Tír Eoghain v An Cabhán) agus an taispeántas taibhsiúil comórtha Laochra ar bun chomh maith le Cluiche Ceannais Roinn 1. Go deimhin, bhí an fhéachaint teilifíse ar Laochra chomh hard sin go bhfuil áit bainte amach aige sin freisin ar an liosta den 10 gClár is Airde féachana riamh ar TG4. Rinne an cainéal beochraoladh cuimsitheach ar chluichí ceannais na Sraithe Peile ó Pháirc an Chrócaigh arís i mbliana mar go raibh Cluichí Ceannais Roinn 3 agus Roinn 4 ar fáil ar TG4 ar an Satharn. Is cinnte go bhfuil Ardstiúrthóir TG4, Pól Ó Gallchóir, thar a bheith bródúil as na figiúirí féachana seo. “Bhí a fhios againn go mbeadh an-éileamh ag an bpobal féachana teilifíse ar ár mbeochraoladh ó Pháirc an Chrócaigh inné,” a dúirt sé “ach is iontach ar fad a chruthúnas a fheiceáil sna torthaí ó TAM Ireland. Is iomaí clár agus mír chomórtha craolta againn le tamall anuas agus bhí an ard-fhéachaint teilifíse seo tuillte go maith ag an bpeil agus ag an dtaispeántas iontach a chuir Laochra inár láthair.” Breis eolais: Linda Ní Ghríofa, linda.ni.ghriofa@tg4.ie Cuir aithne orainn @TG4TV www.tg4.tv
