New to the RTÉ Player in November

Following the success of the second series of The Doireann Project and the Rugby World Cup on the RTÉ Player we have even more new content coming in November.

 

My Best Sustainable Life

 

 

Climate and environmental issues remain one of our greatest challenges. This November, to put a focus on the scale of the problem, RTÉ will devote an entire week of investigations, events and debate to the issue. As part of this the RTÉ Player will bring you My Sustainable Life where a number of well known faces will take on sustainability challenges.

 

ER (SERIES 8)

 

 

Part of our binge-worthy boxsets, we're adding Series 8 ofER, the seminal hospital drama, to the other 7 series which are already on the RTÉ Player. Watch your favourite doctors battle with both the emergencies that come into their ward and with each other as the pressures of a busy emergency room.
