The O'Donovans went down a treat on Graham Norton's New Year's Eve special

The takeover continues.

GRAHAM NORTON’S NEW Year spectacular is bound to be worth staying in for.

The O’Donovan brothers from Skibbereen are set to appear on the show on Saturday, along with Hollywood stars Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, James McEvoy, and er, Frank Skinner.

Their hilarious post-race interviews at the Rio Olympics during the summer went viral all over the world, so they were fitting guests to see in the New Year.

Judging by this teaser, they’re just as amusing, with French actress Marion Cotillard absolutely LOST by their accents.

Take a look here if you can’t wait until Saturday. They talk about Skibbereen, their medals, and that dude who got a tattoo of Pull Like A Dog on his arm.

    I watched pull like a dog on rte last night and the black haired chap Said he hated looking back at the race because he believes they could/should have won. He has the attitude of a winner and long may it last.

    @Gary: Thats the impression I get from these lads is that underneath it all they are serious competitors.

    42, What’s with the ‘and er, Frank Skinner’ ? as if he is not worthy to be on the show.
    He is a comedy legend, writer and TV presenter of some note, with strong sporting connections and had his own Sat night chat show at one stage.
