George Hook interviewing EOS at UL?

thomond2006

I've heard that George Hook will be interviewing former Ireland Rugby head coach Eddie O'Sullivan in UL on Thursday as part of his show "The Right Hook".

Any truth in this?

If yes, where/when will it take place?

Anyone?

There doesn't appear to be anything about it on his newstalk page. Your best bet is to either ask in the Foundation buildings ticket office about it or ring up newstalk, here's there contact page.

Just e-mailed them for a ticket.

Any chance I can get in being a regular UL student?

I rang reception in UL there and it's on at 12 today. It's on in the common room of the Millstream building. It's ticket only but she said that you could still try and get in and stand at the back maybe! Worth a try anyway.

Saw Keith Wood walk out just there and some guy fly off in a helicoptor outside my window.
I guess it was Cox who used the helicoptor?

I strongly suspect that was Denis O'Brien - I at least know for definite he arrived in one.

snazzy

Saw the set up but didn't go look in.
Had Karate but saw the helicopter alright.

Pat Cox actually drove down and was late so he had to get audience participation!!!
The helicopter was probably for Minister of something, Mary Hannifan, who was launchin special olympics ireland 2010, which was the reason the show was held in limerick in teh first place!

I saw Mary Hanafin leaving by car so it wasn't her. Someone said Denis O'Brien and I'd say it could have been him.

I know someone who participated. George Hook was a great laugh and a lot more friendly than Eddie O'Sullivan. He ran out of the place.

Ya it was very good. George Hook is some character. It was great to see how everything works. EOS interview was very good. Pat Cox and Keith Wood also entertaining.
