The Paddy Raff Show

Snobby socialite Nigel leaves BT9 and heads ‘up west’ for a date with an instagrammer from LA - will she share Nigel’s love of fine dining, foie gras and ramen? Granny Raff and her man-friend Harry pay their respects at the wake of her next door neighbour, but tears are shed for something more than the dearly departed Phyllis. The rocking and raving priest Father Pat tries to broaden his All-Request Mass appeal by becoming a videogamer - but an unplanned live confession is what ends up going viral. And furloughed flight attendant Kara-Lynne dishes out her own brand of sass as the face ‘Fryinair’, Belfast’s newest pop-up restaurant serving airplane meals on the ground.

Granny Raff discovers her daughter Denise has finally landed a job, but the shocking details of what the work involves makes Granny lose her appetite for Belfast baps. Having disgraced himself by accidently live streaming a confession on his All-Request Mass, Father Pat finds himself working the phone lines back in the parish Ecumenicall Centre. Paddy goes on a stag-do dressed as the Incredible Hulk but behaves nothing like a super-hero. And after another disastrous date, Nigel opens up about his first marriage break-up, and with wingman Jarlath on the piano he performs his version of heartbreak anthem I Will Survive.

Nigel has a fireside ‘chit’ up in Malone with BBC Breakfast’s Holly Hamilton. How will Holly handle being his new BT9 TV sports reporter, and can Nigel persuade her to become a brand ambassador for his latest venture, Champfast sparkling tonic wine? Former flight attendant Kara-Lynne gets taken for a ride in her latest new job. There’s turbulence, but her experience of managing stag and hen parties at 36,000 feet comes in handy. Father Pat the raving priest is invited to headline the prestigious God-Fest at Belfast’s Saint Francis of SSE Arena. He performs alongside acts like Our Lady Gaga, but not everyone in the packed stadium is a Father Pat fan; Eileen stages a one-woman protest. Granny Raff is babysitting grandson Dylan, who answers the door to a local politician canvassing for her vote. Granny shares her own clear message for politicians, teaching young Dylan a valuable life lesson in getting rid of such unwelcome callers.

The best bits of series 2, presented by Nigel live and direct from the Malone Road’s posh new BT9 TV station. Nigel’s own highlights include going up west for a date with an Instagrammer from L.A. He also recalls launching Nigel’s Chit Show where he interviewed snooker legend Dennis Taylor and BBC Breakfast’s Holly Hamilton. Granny Raff’s best bits includes that time she was babysitting young grandson Dylan and a canvassing politician unexpectedly called round. Father Pat continues to preach his interdenominational message of ‘beats be with you’ in his all-request mass. Paddy’s mind flies into orbit thinking about a family holiday to Mars, and he feels like a complete alien when trying to make small talk with a plumber who just wants to fix his boiler.
