I just found the "Faoi Lán Cheoil" series on Youtube. It's a TG4 production about certain celebrities learning to play an Irish instrument in half a year or so. The teachers are super-famous, everyone of them (so far) has spoken Irish, and so have some of the students:
"Directed by Conor Byrne, the programs involve well known Irish people learning traditional instruments for the first time, and filming their progress, to the point where eventually they give a performance. In this nine-part series, eight celebrities embark on a journey to learn a musical instrument over a period of six months under the expert tuition of a renowned musician and each programme charts their trials and triumphs. Celebrities include the actor Jeremy Irons, footballer Andy Reid, actor Macdara Ó Fátharta, playwright Marie Jones and actor Adrian Dunbar."
