Comedy duo the 2 Johnnies

The line-up for the first episode of 'The 2 Johnnies' brand new TV show has been revealed.

The 2 Johnnies 'Late Night Lock In' starts this evening on RTE 2 and RTE Player, as the Tipperary and 2fm hosts and podcasters hope to bring craic and chaos each Thursday evening.

This week, Johnny B and Johnny Smacks will be joined by comedian Seann Walsh, Thurles based singer Una Healy and GAA legend Marty Morrissey.

Music on the night will be provided by The Highstool Prophets, who will perform This is the Life.

Audience members Scott, Michelle, and Darren from Whitegate in Cork take on Nicola, Amy, and Maeve from Coolgreany in Wexford in the television debut of The Parish Quiz.

House band The Young Ones will be on hand for live music throughout the evening. Plus, more fun and games with the audience throughout the show.

The 2 Johnnies are best known for their chart-topping podcast but also host a drivetime show on weekdays on 2FM.

The comedy duo previously presented travel The 2 Johnnies Do America but their latest venture will be very different and follow a chat show format.

"There was a suggestion early on that we do it live but then they rethought that," Johnny Smacks told the RTE Guide.

"I wouldn't blame them."He added: "We want to celebrate our mad culture in Ireland.

"It won't be the slickest, but you can't be afraid to make mistakes."
