Whistle Through The Shamrocks
Series 1
Hat Trick Podcasts, 2021
It’s just a normal day of chip making for the humble and impoverished O’Flanerhyn family in the sleepy Irish village of Ballysnavougherenn, in this lovingly funny podcast.
About Whistle Through The Shamrocks
Whistle Through the Shamrocks was the ultimate lockdown project.
While sat at home, Derry Girls and Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan collaborated with her best friend Camilla Whitehill (Big Mood) to pen a totally mad comedy series, leaning on every “Oirish” stereotype in the book.
They brought it to us at Hat Trick, where we immediately saw its potential as a comedy podcast.
Nicola and Camilla then opened their vast address books allowing us to assemble an amazing cast - Jamie Beamish, Stephanie Beatriz, Jordan Brookes, Catherine Cohen, Nicola Coughlan, Ed Gamble, Louisa Harland, Paul Mallon, Ben Miller, Brenock O'Connor, Kiell Smith-Bynoe, Jonathan Van Ness, Amalia Vitale, Camilla Whitehill and Susan Wokoma
I defy any of you not to end up humming “Love and Potatoes” or Ben Miller’s evil rap after listening.
