By the time of her retirement in 2018, Meath jockey Nina Carberry had enjoyed an incredible career from becoming the first female jockey to win a race at the Cheltenham Festival in 18 years to becoming only the second woman ever to win the Irish Grand National in 2011.

Nina joined Dermot and Dave for an Ask Me Anything special where we put her in the saddle and asked your questions on everything from falls to broken bones and what jockey eats.

Forget say it with flowers,  Diarmuid Farrell said it with something much tastier when he proposed to his long-term girlfriend Karen Menton.

Inspired by her love of Alphabetti on toast for dinner, the Longford man decided to spell out exactly what he was thinking.

Speaking to Dermot and Dave, Diarmuid revealed that it took only one can to get all the letters he needed!

Karen, who is originally from Mullingar, explained how Heinz have now gotten involved after hearing about the romantic proposal and are now offering special limited edition cans that just feature the letters M,A,R,Y and E so couples around the country can have their own romantic proposal.

The couple are getting married in September, and Karen told Dermot and Dave that despite the best efforts of their loved ones, there won't be an Alphabetti cake on the big day.

It certainly brings another meaning to 'toasting' your engagement.

The limited edition Heinz 'Marry Me' cans will be on sale from HeinztoHome from February 1st.

Peter Flanagan, reporter with Bloomberg, told Dermot and Dave about the plans for the 650,000 square foot premises and what this could mean for Irish consumers.
