I totally agree. It's a ridiculous addition to the show.

And what's with the faux-American accent - did she spend any time in the states, or just spending too much time watching fade street?

It destroys the flow to the show. She is pretty bad alright.

I am almost certain she was brought in because VB could barely read the texts, if ye can remember. His comic timing for the 'comic' texts were particularly soul destroying.

Its the same way he struggles with the newspaper front pages every night.

She sounds like the girl on newstalk before Ivan Yates.

The "E" woman. Although she is beginning to grow on me as a presenter.

Same here.. wastes too much time introducing her and small talk with her at the start.. Given how many people he has to already introduce and how short the show is....

I think the reason that they have her come on is that they want some sort of interactive element to the show, and Vincent simply couldnt read the texts from the autocue..

I see you beat me to it...

JonathanAnon · 13-01-2011 1:12am

I see I did

I am pretty sure that's the reason all the same.. Remember the night he had the guy in demonstrating the new software he had for viewing the papers, and Vincent could hardly seen the screen never mind the words on the newspaper...

I think she used to babysit JEdward

Watching martin manseragh laughing away to himself tonight would make your blood boil. This nutter thinks fianna failure are doing a splendid job. Imagine he's a government minister. What a tool. looks like he cant even dress himself properly. and that supid blubbering crap he comes out with.

Is this loser going to be voted back in or what?

I think I'd rather Vincent stumble through the texts and tweets than the new way it's been done.

That's what it seems to be.

Regardless of who presents the segment though, imo, as mentioned above, it does mess with the flow of the show.

I do indeed.

Poor ol' Vincent must be a very vain man to not throw on the spectacles even the odd time...

I just did a quick Google and - at first glance - it seems like TV3 love their Photoshopping!

Rule 1 : You must pose EXACTLY the same way every time!

Presumably the 3e presenter is there for "plug" purposes only, because Vincent doesn't appear to have any time or respect for tweets.

I'm not sure, I think part of it is certainly that Vincent effectively cant see well enough to read.. also, vincent has always had a penchant for bringing pretty faces on to the show... Niamh Lyons, Aine Kerr, Curly head from the Sunday Newspaper, Mary Fitzgerald.

But I agree with the people above in that a) it doesnt really fit properly in the show and b) She doesnt exactly come across as being clever.. The section is not a positive addition to the show..

Yeah she looks great on the telly.. And she has less opinions of her own (than Justine) as well... so win/win situation ..

Who was the guy with the beard on last nights show? Did he actually say anything in the whole show?

Is that Brad Pitt's fourteen year old son?

JonathanAnon · 14-01-2011 12:30am

hey Telekon, what was the name of the guy with that Newspaper Zooming In software.. I'm having trouble reading...

ballsymchugh · 14-01-2011 12:31am

sometimes vinny makes an arse of explaining a story, and even less he explains it clearly. he just explained that story crystal clear! no spluttering or coughing at all!!

SEPT 23 1989 · 14-01-2011 12:31am

Kennedy sounds like one of Hitlers generals in the bunker

It would be if we all hadn't known it already...

dambarude · 14-01-2011 12:36am

This is why we need late night current affairs shows.

I wouldn't like to be in Michael Kennedy's position.
