looks very useful alright. i was a bit annoyed with rte a few weeks ago as before single-handed 3 aired i wanted to watch the first 2 series but it wasn't available online which i think was a missed opportunity for rte, as it wasn't available i didn't bother watching the third series (which still isn't available as far as i can see - it just keeps popping up as it will be available once the show has aired???).
this is a welcome step but they really are way behind with this in comparison to channel 4 or bbc.
