Bono:Top Ten of Irish Greatest

The poll was set up in conjunction with Ryan Tubridy's radio show and the results will be announced on 'The Late Late Show' later this year.
The final five greatest Irish have been chosen but RTE just released 10 names to keep us guessing.
The five will be named on 'The Late Late Show' on September 17.
They will then be the subject of one of five hour-long documentaries. Once these have aired, the public will be given the chance to reassess them and decide which one deserves the accolade of Ireland's greatest figure. The result will be announced in October.
