    The break was nice while it lasted. Back to Lyric for me from Monday.

    It might be different now that he's had time to reflect, the absence of Mairead and Jenny might change the dynamic too. I genuinely hope he comes back refreshed with a more lighthearted attitude, I really used to enjoy the show before Ray started trying to be all serious. He should just realise that's just not his bag and go back to lighthearted non forced easy going topics.

    Did mairead get transferred voluntarily or not? I think the show will be better without her as she tends to be a cheerleader for the worst ray moments. She has been mentined laely on boards in people who should not be on tv http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057279171&page=2 . I wouldnt be surprised if she shows up as an Expose presenter at some point.

    I actually think that Jenny going might hurt the show. She at times seemed to curb Rays more stupid pieces. I also think he is more likely to talk about his kids without Jenny there.

    Callans sketch seems to get the show down. Did Ray piss off Callan at some point?

    I also wonder if there is a kibosh on sketches making fun of Tubridy. The Callan bit about him was spot on, Ray is lucky that Tubs is the competition but I have never seen a comedian/impersonator make fun of Tubs on tv and it seems like rte has banned it or its cultural fear incase you never get a job on the telly again. I thought the Callan's mairead impersonation was spot on

    Callan is a nasty piece of work, Paul Galvin should have boxed the head off him

    The official line is that he's celebrating a "significant" birthday today. Wouldn't we all like a day off for a birthday. Something strange going on. I hope he's ok.

    Fair play to you Will for thinking of Ray on his birthday by covering running, sports bras and sugary drinks on the show.

    Just take a day's annual leave on your birthday, as I assume Ray did. Simple really.

    Canadian lady says he's back tomorrow.

    Ian Dempsey was talking about a "New Show" that they know about but can't say anything about. Not the lunchtime double header or Tony Fenton's slot, but something else. Any ideas?

    Unless they move the last word to newstalk there is no other "primetime" slot for Louise Duffy.

    No. Louise Duffy is going to Tony Fenton's slot "for the time being". This was a different "new show". That's the way I picked it up anyway.

    It'll probably be a "new show" in that it will no longer be the "Tony Fenton" show and will be "Louise Duffy in the Afternoons" or something. Or else she's moving to weekend breakfast and Alison or Phil is moving to take Tony's place.
