Date Posted: May 26, 2020
Modern dating is tough and first impressions are crucial. Saying the wrong thing, even wearing the wrong shoes could mean it’s game over. But there is an answer to the dating prayers – Na Gael Marys.
Na Gael Marys is a new four-part Irish language series made for BBC Gaeilge by DoubleBand Films with support from Northern Ireland Screen’s Irish Language Broadcast Fund and airs on BBC Two Northern Ireland on Monday 1st June at 10pm.
Three former Mary From Dungloe contestants travel the length and breadth of Ireland using their pageant poise and style to help four unlucky-in-love men find their way through the dating wilderness.
Na Gael Marys are Rosie McNally, Caoimhe Walsh and Courteney Boyle – each one skilled in refinement, grace and presentation. Each week they will help one man who is looking for some advice and wisdom on how they can revamp themselves and upgrade their love-life.
Honed by their experience in the festival, the Marys have a wealth of tips on style, confidence and how to make a good impression. They help the men make the most of what they’ve got – identifying his personality strengths and where encouragement is needed. Along the way wardrobes are updated, hairstyles and scruffy beards are groomed and the Marys divulge the secrets of dating repartee.
With mock dates monitored by the trio, The Marys do more than help the guys with their love lives. They leave a lasting impression, imparting their wisdom about life as well as love in this light-hearted series that takes a look at modern life and dating with a sense of humour and self-awareness.

Tá coinní rómánsúla deacair sa lá atá inniu ann agus tá an chéad choinne ríthábhachtach. Má deirtear an rud contráilte, má chaitear na bróga míchearta, thiocfadh leis a bheith thart sula dtosaíonn sé. Ach tá triúr ban againn a bhfuil réiteach gach faidhbe acu – Na Gael Marys.
Is sraith úr Ghaeilge ceithre chlár é Na Gael Marys a rinne DoubleBand Films do BBC Gaeilge le tacaíocht ó Chiste Craoltóireachta Gaeilge Scáileán Thuaisceart Éireann.
Triúr a bhí páirteach i gcomórtas Mháire an Chlocháin Léith iad Na Gael Marys agus tá siad ag siúl na tíre le cuidiú le ceathrar fear nach raibh an t-ádh orthu go dtí seo teacht ar pháirtí a gcuid aislingí.
Ag tosú Dé Luain 01 Meitheamh ar BBC Two Northern Ireland is iad Rosie McNally, Caoimhe Walsh agus Courteney Boyle Na Gael Marys – agus iad lán de ghalántacht, grástúlacht agus cur i láthair. Gach seachtain, cuideoidh siad le fear amháin atá ag iarraidh comhairle agus críonnachta ar an dóigh lena saol grá a athchóiriú agus a uasghrádú.
Leis an taithí a bhí acu ar an fhéile, tá flúirse leideanna ag na trí Mháire ar stíl, muinín agus an dóigh le dul i gcion ar dhaoine. Cuidíonn siad leis na fir a oiread leasa a bhaint as a bhfuil acu – a dtréithe dearfacha agus na tréithe a bhfuil cuidiú de dhíth orthu. I rith an ama, tá stór éadaí a uasdátú, tá stíleanna gruaige agus féasóga á gcóiriú agus nochtann na trí Mháire rún dhea-chaint an ghrá.
Breathnaíonn an triúr ar choinní bréige agus cuidíonn siad leis na fir ina saol grá. Ag fágáil lorg buan ar na fir dóibh, roinneann siad a gcuid eolais ar an saol agus ar an ghrá sa tsraith éadromchroíoch seo ina n-amharcaimid ar shaol agus rómánsaíocht na linne le ciall don ghreann agus don fhéin-aithne.
