A singing nurse and wee Daniel O’Donnells take to the stage as Ireland’s Got Talent continues on Virgin Media One

The talent is international this week as a singing nurse all the way from the Philippines, and an aerial trio from across Europe take to the Ireland’s Got Talent stage hoping to impress the judges.

Daniel O’Donnell fans are in for a treat as an adorable tribute act from Cavan called ‘The Wee Daniels’ take to the stage and there’s some ‘Daycent’ talent all the way from Tipperary too.

Tune into Virgin Media One this Saturday February 16th at 7.30pm for another jammed packed show of talent.

Ireland’s Got Talent continues this Saturday night, 16th February at 7.30pm with another bunch of hopefuls trying their luck on Ireland’s only variety stage.

Last week’s show saw BSD dance troupe from Swords in Dublin got the Golden Buzzer from Jason Byrne - they joinSea of Change, an all-female choir made up of cancer survivors and supporters who are all straight through to the live shows. Will any of this week’s acts have what it takes to nab a remaining Golden Buzzer?

This week the show features 29 year old singing nurse Rodelle Borja. Originally from the Philippines, Rodelle works in a nursing home in Swords and regularly sings to his patients. Performing to a live audience and four judges is a daunting experience for Rodelle but can he overcome his nerves to impress the judges?

The Wee Daniels are Finn Dolan (9), Robert Johnston (13), Jack O’Sullivan (12), Rian Sheridan (9) and David Rubotham (9) from Cavan who will be playing tribute to one of Ireland’s greatest entertainers – yes you’ve guessed it…Daniel O’Donnell. They have the outfits, they have the signature moves, they have even mastered the Daniel ‘wink’. It’s their dream to perform on stage with Daniel, but first they have the four judges to impress!

According to MC Daycent (31), from Thurles in Tipperary, he is ‘the best MC that you ever did see!’ He will take to the Ireland’s Got Talent stage with an original rap including all four judges in his lyrics. His YouTube channel has amassed over 1 million views - but will the judges think he’s ‘daycent’ in the talent stakes?

Lucy Lashes (28) is a drag queen from Cloghan in Donegal and has been performing for the past 8 years. She once turned up to a gig with only 3 people in the audience, but this weekend she will perform to a jam packed Helix Theatre. Can she charm the audience and more importantly the judges?
