Irish athlete Ciara Mageean will be chatting about a year that saw her win gold at the European Championships, the injury laid waste to her Olympic dream and why she isn't giving up that dream just yet. The County Down native will share her journey of recovery with Patrick and will also be looking ahead to the GOAL Mile, for which she is an ambassador.
Two of Ireland's best-known singers, Nathan Carter and Una Healy have joined forces for the first time to record a Christmas classic in aid of Barnardos. They'll join Patrick for a chat and will perform ‘Mistletoe and Wine' in studio with the children's choir from Corville National School in Roscrea, Co. Tipperary.
