Amy Huberman returned to our screens last night in new RTÉ four-part drama Striking Out, which received a largely positive reception on its debut.
The new show sees the actress star as Tara Rafferty, a lawyer who finds her fiancé sleeping with another woman just two weeks before their wedding.
If you missed it, you can catch up here.
The show also made Dublin look absolutely gorgeous and featured some epic home-grown tunes but some eagle-eyed Twitter users spotted a few inaccuracies.
Here’s the verdict…
#strikingout not realistic. Who has their hen on a week night?

The Custom House is a fair bit away from Ballsbridge @amyhuberman. Did you walk that far? I know the city too well! #StrikingOut

Would you really go to the bother of hanging the dress on a hanger after the night she’d had? I think not. #StrikingOut

So #StrikingOut is basically the Irish version of The Good Wife. Noticing a lot of similarities.

Only blooper I could see is that the Sex Club is on Harcourt Street, not Leeson Street. And it’s not Coppers. #StrikingOut

Thought the sex club was on Leeson street? Last I checked the Luas doesn’t run down there! #StrikingOut

“Nobody loses their right to privacy” by virtue of being famous – I think Von Hannover (no 2) might disagree! #ECHR #Art8 #StrikingOut

A normal Irish Mammy would perfectly murder Eric for cheating and still have time to cook the dinner. #StrikingOut

I have never lived in Dublin, and even I knew you can’t get from the Docklands to the courts that fast. #StrikingOut
