Ciara O’Brien was an ant for large companies before Covid hit, when she returned home to Mitchelstown in Co Cork.

Will it all add up? We find out in the next episode of At Your Service on RTÉ1 on Sunday at 7.30pm.

The Brennan brothers, Francis and John, are worried for Ciara – she only has four rooms. How is she ever going to make a success of her business?

Ciara O'Brien, of Mitchelstown, is on At Your Service on RTE1 on Sunday, October 6.

Later in the series, they will head to Cork again, to advise sisters with a ion for wellness, who dream of opening their very own retreat and spa in Glengarriff, Co Cork.
