Laois families have a great track record on the hugely popular Ireland’s Fittest Family TV programme – and we are being sought once again.
The producers of the show are now looking for new applications ahead of the latest series which will air later this year.
Both the Mulhares from Clonad and the McDonalds from Ballyroan were runners-up in Series 2 and 6, respectively.
While in 2019, the amazing Maher family from Killeshin made it all the way to the final too, eventually finishing in fourth place.
But since then, no Laois family has graced our screens and producers wish to change that.
A spokesperson said: “We are back for our tenth year and are currently looking for families for the brand new series.
“Laois families good history on Ireland’s Fittest Family with two Laois families being runners up with the Mulhare’s Season 2 and the McDonald’s Season 6 and Mahers coming fourth place in Season 7 in Croke Park.
“But we haven’t had a Laois family take part in recent years, could your family be the ones to go all the way and bring the title of Ireland’s Fittest Family to your county?”
Ireland’s Fittest Family is a competition reality show where families from all over the country compete against each other for the chance to win €15,000.
The mentors for this year have not yet been announced but Davy Fitzgerald, Derval O’Rourke, Anna Geary and Donncha O’Callaghan have filled the role in recent years.

We previously did a list of families in Laois that we believe could give it a go – maybe one of those will take it on!
