Travelogue John Bishop's Ireland has been picked up to series at ITV with a four episode order. The series follows comedian John Bishop on a 600 mile road trip around the Emerald Isle. John's Bishop's Ireland sees him take a deep dive into Irish culture. It’s a rollicking and hilarious voyage that will not only follow John discovering iconic sights and quirky customs, but will also see him perform his comedy along the way, from a small and cramped gig in a Limerick pub, through to the biggest stage in all of Ireland.
