LETTERKENNY is to feature in the second instalment of the popular ITV series ‘Dermot O’Leary’s Taste of Ireland’.

The former X Factor host and tv star was spotted filming in Letterkenny this week as part of the show.

Dermot, who is proud of his Irish roots, took to our screens last September when he explored different parts of Ireland and all the food and culture they had to offer.

Now, he is back with a ten part series which will air this spring.

Donegal will be highlighted in this series. O’Leary ventured to Letterkenny as part of his travels and was seen filming in the popular Lemon Tree Restaurant.

The first series was a huge triumph which captivated over 3 million viewers.

This series will hope to follow on from that success and showcase the fabulous county to millions.
