The Rose of Tralee is over for another year, and we have a new Rose in Elysha Brennan. Congrats!
As expected, this years annual tv gold event was packed with moments that left everyone laughing, rollling their eyes and shaking their heads in general disbelief.
Here are our top 5 moments from the the 2015 contest – minus the poetry!
The selfie
Oh how times have changed! The Scottish rose Brid Madigan couldn’t resist posing for a selfie with the main man of the festival on stage!
Dáithí didn’t seem to mind!!
Let’s Boogie
Daniel O Donnel breaks into a song and dance for the Roses. Swoon..The Co. Donegal singer never fails to impress!
Dáithí gets down on one knee..
The host proves he’s the perfect gentleman and tackles another Rose’s shoe straps. Top marks for getting it right in the first go! Now that’s skill!
Smarty pants!
