On the ball.
The first episode of Dancing with the Stars Ireland aired on RTÉ this evening and it received quite the reaction, which you can check out here.
By all accounts, it’s a love/hate thing with some people very impressed by the show and others annoyed with the fact that it lasted for two hours and included a LOT of ad breaks.
Anyway, in the midst of this, a few viewers picked up on something very specific – that the dress worn by Karen Byrne, who’s partnered with sports broadcaster Des Cahill, looked very familiar to one previously worn by Georgia May Foote during Strictly Come Dancing.
Here’s what they had to say:
Just saw that Karen on @DWTSIRL is wearing Georgia’s Blackpool dress ? so many memories #Strictly #DWTSIrl

I swear Karen was wearing the same dress that Georgia May Foote wore at Blackpool. #DWTSIrl
