After a long run of 17 seasons, the popular weight-loss show on RTÉ is saying goodbye. Discover the behind-the-scenes details and the impact of the show's end!
RTÉ's beloved show, Operation Transformation, bids farewell after an incredible 17 seasons. The show, known for its inspiring weight-loss journeys, saw leaders guided by a team of experts including clinical psychologist Dr. Eddie Murphy, dietitian Sophie Pratt, Dr. Sumi Dunne, and the iconic host who took over from Gerry Ryan, Kathryn Thomas.
