Dáithí said he’s ‘excited’ to get back to normal on the show, following years of covid restrictions in the past two seasons.

“We want to bring the fun back into afternoons and Today is a great part of that," he said.

Cork native Sinead added: "I'm delighted to be back in the studio in RTÉ Cork. We're all really looking forward to the season ahead and hearing from all our viewers. It will be great to meet new studio guests and lots of familiar faces too."

Announcing their return, RTE said The Today team want to know what is going on in people's lives and encouraged viewers to ‘get in touch’.

They said: “Share stories of your interiors project. Hard work and passion projects can be featured on the show. Do you have hidden talents or precious heirlooms in the attic? Email the show at today@rte.ie.”
