Sean Quinn at his home in Ballyconnell

Quinn interview to feature on Prime Time tonight

It's set to be a busy evening for former billionaire Seán Quinn as he is set to launch his new book in the Slieve Russell Hotel around 8pm and will appear on RTÉ's Prime Time little over an hour later.

Tonight's Prime Time will feature a candid interview with Quinn, pre recorded at his Ballyconnell home with Miriam O’Callaghan.

The controversial entrepreneur will answer tough questions about his rise and fall, his controversial new book, and the events that have shaped his life.

The interview promises an unfiltered look into the mind of one of Ireland's most polarising figures.

O'Callaghan will delve into a range of topics including the motivations be-hind penning his book and what he hopes to achieve through its publication. It will also touch on Quinn's financial decisions and how greed played a role in his actions. Quinn will recount the day he learned about Kevin Lunney's attack, his thoughts, and any actions he took to uncover the perpetrators, as well as his connections and interactions with individuals involved in the incident, namely Dublin Jimmy.

Quinn will discuss the toll his legal battles and public scrutiny have taken on his family, as well as his interactions with the media and his perspective on how he's portrayed.

On interviewing Seán Quinn, Prime Time presenter, Miriam O’ Callaghan said: “The rise and dramatic fall of Seán Quinn, one of Ireland’s most successful self-made businessmen, is an extraordinary story of rags to riches and back again. We have covered it many times down the years on Prime Time, but yesterday was the first time I got to sit down with the man himself.”

This exclusive interview promises to be a compelling and thought-provoking insight into the mindset of a man who was once one of Ireland's wealthiest individuals.

Watch RTÉ Prime Time tonight, Thursday, 14 September at 9:35pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player.
