Poll: Will you watch The Oscars live?

Let us know your thoughts in this week’s Best of the Box poll.

THIS SUNDAY, THE 98th Academy Awards will take place live at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. The big question on our lips in Ireland is: how many golden statuettes will we take home?

Jessie Buckley looks like a dead cert for winning Best Actress, but we have our hopes pinned on a few films, including Retirement Plan in the Best Animated Short category.

The only hitch is that the Oscars takes place in the wee hours of the morning Irish time, with RTÉ One kicking off the broadcasting at 11pm. But will you be staying up for it?
