MRS Brown's Boys star Eilish O'Carroll and stylist Darren Kennedy have been revealed as the latest contestants for Dancing with the Stars Ireland.
The pair were unveiled by Ryan Tubridy on RTE Radio 1 and become the second and third celebs for this year's show after Mairead Ronan was announced at the weekend.
Eilish, who we revealed last month was to take part in the show, said she was excited and nervous about taking to the dance floor.
She said: "I feel like a kid at Christmas time, I've got everything I asked for, but on the other hand I'm terrified of opening that present."
Brendan O'Carroll's sister said she didn't think she'd get "past first base" when it came to getting on the show but is delighted TV bosses chose her to compete, adding: "I just love it, I love the glitz and the glamour. But I never thought it would be a reality."
Darren said he had "zero dance" experience, apart from being brought to the Billy Barry Kids dance school by his mum when he was six.
Eilish said she's very excited for the show
He said he came home from that after the first class and told his mum it wasn't for him, but "looking back now, I'd have said stick with the dancing kid".
"I'm equally terrified, petrified and all the -fieds. This feel's very real now."
